List of files in a folder...

#1 (**permalink**) 11-30-2006

Could anyone advise me if it's possible (with PHP) to list the files that
appear in a folder.

What I want to acheive is a webpage that will display all of the images from
within the /gallery/ directory of the website that I am working on.

Regards,

Sean

If you just want to read files inside a given dir:

http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php

If you want to also list the folders, use:

http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.scandir.php

<?php
$galleryDir = 'gallery'; // The path to gallery
if ($handle = opendir($galleryDir)) {
$found = array();
while (false !== ($item = readdir($handle))) {
if ($item != "." && $item != "..") {
$found[] = $item;
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
// Reduce the array to include only the types we want
$reduced = preg_grep('/\.(jpe?g|png|gif|tiff?|bmp)$/i',$found);
if($reduced){
// Dump the images
$template = '<div><img src="%s" width="%d" height="%s" alt="%s"
/></div>';
foreach($reduced as $img){
$path = $galleryDir.'/'.$img;
list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($path);
printf($template,$path,$width,$height,$img);
}
} else {
// No images found. Show warning
trigger_error( "No images to display", E_USER_WARNING );
}
?>

I've used this free php script for simple gallery system
http://chiliweb.com.pl/freesoft/quickgallery/
it's very easy to use and produces a nice gallery that can be modified
