Directory List, Identify Folder Different Than File
I need to make the folder from my dir lister point to a link different of my files ?

I'm working with windows NT server... and php 4.3.2

Here is my code :

<?php
$file = $_GET['file'];
if(isset($_POST['text']))
{
if(get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
$_POST['text'] = stripslashes($_POST['text']);
}
$handle = fopen($file, 'w') or die("Unable to open file for writing");
fwrite($handle, $_POST['text']);
fclose($handle);
}

$text = "";

if(is_readable($file))
{
$text = file_get_contents($file);
}
?>

And later on the page in the html part :

<textarea class="zz" name="text" id="text" cols=170 rows=10 wrap="off"><?php echo $text; ?></textarea></td></tr>

and to add anothe challenge I need it to open in another frame wich is the verticaly siding this one.

How Does One Get A List Of All Files In A Folder?
need a list of all files (i have like 5k or so) in a folder, I need to add there names to a table

I am doing this so i can compare two tables

table 1. comments added to uploaded pics -finished pictures-
table 2. no comments added yet to uploaded pics (so they can be commented on GET IT?)  -unfinished pictures-

All the pictures are in a single folder for the time being i'm going to be making a form based on the pictures that are on table 2 so that they can have comments and titles and file name added to table 1 (to be done still) but i need to know all the file names for the folder in question, i guess i could do it via cmd line ls or something like that, i'll get back to you.

I am creating a plugins folder that  I will use to store php files. I also store other folders within that "plugins" folder. The problem I have is getting the script to read only the  the .php files and skip subfolders.

List Files In A Directory
I have a directory with PDF files. I need to be able display a list of the files in that directory and link their names to the actual files. The files keep changing so i need to have a script doing it, rather then adding links manually. The files are associated with a particular month which is reflected in their names:

filename_1105.pdf -- would be for Nov 2005

Is it possible while printing out a list of the files, have the name of the month spelled out, something like: PHP Code:

<a href="filename_1105.pdf">Filename November 2005</a><br>
<a href="filename_1205.pdf">Filename december 2005</a><br>

I suppose I need to run some sort of loop, but have never done anything similar.

List Files In Directory For Apache Alias
I want to list the files in a given <dir> with a given file extension ...
opendir() or scandir() would seem to be my solution. BUT! those files are outside the root dir of the site ... accessed via an apache alias. so opendir() and similar functions do not seem to work as I cannot feed it a relative path.

is there a way to do this?

my page:
<http://myintranet/prodinfo/listdir.php>

http location of dir to be listed:
<http://myintranet/dailies/>
/dailies/ is an alias pointing elsewhere on the server.
indexing has been turned on for this alias in apache, so loading the above URL shows the dir contents by default.

so for example ...

this works because /images is in the root of the web dir:
$myDir = "../images/";
$scanFiles = scandir($myDir);
print_r($scanFiles);

this does not work as dailies is an alias and not a dir in the web root:
$myDir = "../dailies/";
$scanFiles = scandir($myDir);
print_r($scanFiles);

one option I see is to grab the html of that apache auto-generated index page and parse the content to grab the links out of it. but this seems rather roundabout, and with all the great php file tools, I'm hoping there's a much simpler way.

does anyone have any ideas, or is there some addtl info I can provide to make my question clearer?

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.

Folder List Drop-Down
I am developing a PHP/MySQL project and as part of my initial setup and configuration scripts, the users can select a skin for the application, and a variable value ($skin) is updated to set the current skin, this works ok on it's own, but currently the user must manually type the skin name in a free-text box.

Ideally this needs to be a drop-down option box, and I would like this to be populated by listing the sub-folders within the '/skins' folder, so that it's always up to date. The folder structure looks like this:

/skins
/skins/skin1
/skins/skin2
/skins/skin3

How can I use PHP to generate a list of the current sub-directories in 'skins' and populate the drop-down list?

Files And Folder Copying
I am trying to write a function to copy an existing folder and folder
structure but am already stuck.

What I want to do is the following:

Copy a default folder (default_folder) and all sub folders within it (down
to a possible 4 levels)
eg default folder
->subfolder1
->subfolder2
->sub subfolder1
->sub sub folder 2

I have a form where the user can enter the name of the new folder and an
option to confirm if they want to copy the files also located within the
default folder.
If the checkbox is not checked then copy just the folder structure only

Can this be acheived in one function or will it be based on 2 where a set of
empty folders are created and where the folders and files are copied over

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

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?
