Getting And Using Contents In A Folder
I want to make a photogallery/slideshow with PHP... The 'gallery/slideshow' would show up inside a new window. basically, I just want links with possibility to go: - forward - back - to the very beginning - to the very end - away (close the window) Can I use PHP to determine the contents of the folder with the pictures and then use variables to determine which photo to show, and what URL's should be generates for the arrows? So each folder with a series of photographs would have one PHP file and the pictures themselves in them (it's not a problem to rename them). Should be simple enough, but I'm just starting out with PHP, and I'd like to have something working as soon as possible... the website I'm working on is about to launch soon (my first 'commercial' web project :) ), and this is about the only thing left that I still have to sort out how to do...

Getting Contents Of Folder
I've made half of the code for a little "hosting" site for a few of the members of my site. Their files are uploaded to /login/<username>/ I'm now stuck as to how to show the contents of the folder in a page. I think the use of fopen() is needed, however the php website is a little confusing.

Folder Contents Function?
I'm looking for a function that puts the contents of a folder (the file names) into an array. Is there such a beast? For instance, if there is a folder off of my root called /tips/, and I want to list the files that are in it, such as tip1.txt, tip2.txt, etc.

Zipping Up A Folder And Its Contents?
I installed the zip extension for PHP 5.2, but reading the documentation, I can't figure out how to zip up an existing folder. I mean, I have this folder with a bunch of files in it, right? I *could* scan the whole thing and add each file to a newly created zip archive, but I don't want to. Is there any way to tell PHP to zip up a folder and have its contents be everything inside that folder?

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.

List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that: - reads in all the files in a particular directory - displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them: <ul> <li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li> </ul> etc.? So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory, so you can download them from there.

Merge The Contents Of One Array Into The Contents Of Another.
There are many times when I need to merge the contents of one array into the contents of another. Below is how I make this happen now. Do you know of a better or quicker way to do this? The main reason I am concerned is that the arrays I'm merging now have 40,000+ items in each array. I want to streamline the process if possible. $arrayA = array('item0', 'item1','item2'); $arrayB = array('item3', 'item4', 'item5'); for($i=0;$i<count($arrayB);$i++) { Â Â Â $arrayA[] = $arrayB[$i]; } print_r($arrayA);

Creates A Temporary Folder And A File Within The Folder.
I have a PHP script which creates a temporary folder and a file within the folder. I have a problem when trying to remove the file and folder using my FTP program. The ownership and group are set to NOBODY. I cannot change the permissions on either the file or the folder. I have tried chmod and chgrp and chown but for some reason I cannot change permissions.

Remove From $name (folder)/(folder)/[x]/ <-- If Exists To Just Get [x].
I'll be quite honest. I don't have the faintest idea how to do this, while I can do other php without a problem. Once I know how to go about it I'll be okay. It's two things I think? 1. see if there's a trailing slash and delete it. 2. Remove the preceding path to /x, the folders and slashes, and delete them. and then I have x. X by the way is the final folder in a website and this grabs it for me. <? $name = $REQUEST_URI; ?>

Same Contents
i have an array that i have created by exploding a string that is comma seperated (for example my string was 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and now i have this as array[0] = 1 etc etc) What i am wondering, is if my string was more like 1,2,3,5,6,7,1,1,1,8,9,3,3,2,2 could i search the array and find what appears most frequently in the values (in the above case 1)? So if 1 has 4 occurences, then i echo this value first,then 3 which has 3 occurrences (etc etc) I am trying to make a basic tagging system for my website,and i want the tags that appear most to be displayed first or in a bigger font or something.

Is it possible to get the contents of a file; display the contents in a textbox; and edit the contents of that file. Then click a button and change the contents to the new updated file. The reason I want to know this is because I have programmers on my site and I don't want them to have access to the FTP or cPanel. They will jus enter the name of the file, click submit, be able to edt and replace that file. All without FTP or cPanel.

Get Contents Between Two Markers
I am trying to build a web based php editor for myself to make editing pages easy. Most of the various bits and pieces I can easily include, by including varibles into text input fields. Just one problem remains, how to edit PHP in it? What I thought of doing was to use something like strpos of two different tags; ob_start(); require_once("index.php"); $buffer = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); $pos1 = strpos($buffer, "//extra php here"); $pos2 = strpos($buffer, "//end extra php"); However this does not seem to work - maybe it is because there are spaces in the string - but how can I get the positions of these two markers in the $buffer - or is there a better way of doing this? I would also need something to get rid of everything at the beginning up until the marker, and everything after the 2nd marker. The only thing I have thought of, is to perhaps create another file to contine the extra PHP code in - but why increase used disk space, whilst also possibly letting the users see source code.

Send The Contents
I have a form on my website that uses arrays. Basically I can't figure out how to send the contents of those arrays in the body of an e-mail using the mail() function. If I try just putting the name of the array like $array it will just send the text "Array" to my mailbox, which is normal. Unfortunately, the usual means of displaying the contents of an array such as "while (list($key,$value) = each($array)" won't work in the mail function. is it possible to send the contents of my arrays in the body of an e-mail and if so how do you do it?
