Copy Folder?
I want to copy a folder, subfolder, files, and subfiles. I don't care about attributes. I thought about making the folder a zip, and then using extract but that was confusing and took too long on the server. so what do I do? Is there a script that will parse the dir and COPY all the files?

Copy A File On Folder
I have a script that creates a folder in my site when someone registers. I need a file that is stored on my site to be copied into this newly created folder every time a folder is created. I also need a new empty folder to be created in this folder with a standard name. So, when someone registeres on my site, I have a script that creates an ftp account and folder on my site for them using the info they provided, but what I need is a file copied to that folder and a sub folder created.

Copy Entire Contents Of A Folder To Another
Situation: I am creating a folder based on input from a form and then creating an images folder underneath that -- that works great and I can read and write to the newly created folders AS LONG AS IT IS ONE FILE AT A TIME!!! What I would like to do: I would like to copy the contents of an entire folder over to one of the newly created folders ALL AT ONCE -- or in a loop -- which is what I am trying to do but keep getting denied. My code as it is now: if ($handle = opendir("$sourcedir")) { echo "Directory handle: $handle<br><br>"; echo "Files:<br><br>"; while (false !== ($files = readdir($handle))) { if ($files != "." && $files != "..") { if (!copy($files, $imagepath)) { echo "failed to copy $files into $imagepath<br><br>"; } } } closedir($handle); } all of the variables are working fine... it goes through the loop just fine -- I know this because it prints out the error for every file in the folder... it just won't copy the files over to the new folder while in this loop. Here is the beginning of the error messages: Directory handle: Resource id #2 Files: failed to copy step_c1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images failed to copy step_b1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images failed to copy step_a1.gif into /htdocs/www/schemes/adfasa/images by the way: adfasa is the folder name brought in by the form and images is the folder I create underneath it. Is this something that is possible to do in a loop? If so, what is wrong with this one. If not, how is something like this done? Of course since I know the files that are in the folder I want to copy from I could just go ahead and copy them ONE by ONE but that doesn't seem to be very efficient.

Copy One File From One Folder To Another In A While Statement
I'm attempting to copy one file from one folder to another in a while statement, but I seem to be getting a permissions error. The seperate folders are being created based upon the number of entries from the db, but what I'm trying to do is then afterwards copy the $rowp[zipfile] into the $rowp[path] folder name per each result entry of the while statement. PHP Code: while ($rowp=mysql_fetch_array($res)){ $productfolder = "zips/$rowp[path]"; mkdir($productfolder, 0700); copy("zips/vault/$rowp[zipfile]/", "zips/$rowp[path]/"); echo "$rowp[name] - <a href=zips/$rowp[path]/$rowp[zipfile]>Download Now!</a><br>"; }

Creating Dir, Copy Files And Pass Variables To 2 Files
I need to create a folder on the server weekly named by the user. To this folder copy the contents of an /Original folder. Inside the new folder edit one of the files to insert a data with a XML path generated in another application, copied (via memory) and pasted within the very first form and passed to the file in question. <param name="FlashVars" value="xmlfile= $lanofile" /> the $lanofile is the value that I need to pass from the form to be read by this file. I have created an form (n.php) that POST the name of the folder to a second file (creatdir.php) everything is cool until I have to edit the third file. How can I pass the value of one of the formfileds to a second file and them read this value as a variable to be consumed as mentioned above? Or actually right whatever is on the third field to this position (not using variables).

Root Of Folder App Files
While I know putting a app into a folder was chiseled out of fine scottish granite and carried upto the top of ben nevis by php newbies many years ago - I dont think a folder is the best way to do it . The fact a script is in a folder means certain instant problems if you want to do certain things with . Assuming a script doesnt have index.php and all the script files have a filename prefix like phpgb_ then theres no chance of them clashing with anything else and theres no real reason to continue using a folder for the main script files . While the script will have a app folder for various things - does it make any sense not to use the root because of a single solitary file called index.php . phpgb_index.php is what I use and the method hasnt brought up a single problem of any shape or description . Gas lighting was once what everybody thought was the best way of doing it until that darn new fangled electricity came along .

1 - 2 Millions Files In One Folder?
I have to store over a million files, 10 - 15 kb each, in one folder. The files are created by my php script, sometimes the old files are deleted and new ones are written. So, basically on every connection my script reads/deletes/ writes files from/to that folder. Right now i have only around 300 000 files in that folder, and it feels like its getting slower for that script to work. It does work at the moment, but i am not sure what will happen when there is over a million files there... Are there any limits of files that can be stored in a folder? Would it be better for me to use mysql? I am not sure how mysql will cope with millions of writes/reads

What's Your Folder Structure For Your Files?
So, I'm looking to get started on my first application, and my first question is about folder structure on the server and what are the best practices? When I create static content today, I create one folder per page usually to keep things organized. Any components are included in the related folder, and global components are added to a top level components folder. I realize the dynamics of PHP will reduce the need for hundreds of pages, and that's why I'm excited to learn this language. However, I still need to keep even the dynamic PHP files and components organized. I've seen some sites, where people put all their PHP files on the top level folder. Just wanted to get your feedback on how you guys keep your server folder structure organized?

Security Of Files In A Folder
I'm creating a database for old tests that people have taken. The tests are scanned in and stored in a folder on my server. In order to see them and navigate the many pdf files, you have to login with a username and password. I know how to do all that, but how can I password protect. pdf files on my server so that they can only be accessed from the point after the user has logged in? Everything works dandy except for the fact that people can directly link to a. pdf file (a huge security risk). Also, if I don't password protect the directory of the pdf files, can webcrawlers find the information and store it in their search database?
