On both system we use same locale (koi8r) and filesystem type (ext3). Sincerely Yours Dima Ivanov Reproduce code: --------------- <?php // Note that !== did not exist until 4.0.0-RC2 if ($handle = opendir('./')) { echo "Directory handle: $handle<br>"; echo "Files:<br>"; /* This is the correct way to loop over the directory. */ while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { echo "$file<br>"; } /* This is the WRONG way to loop over the directory. */ /* while ($file = readdir($handle)) { echo "$file\n"; } */ closedir($handle); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Fedora 1 system Directory handle: Resource id #2 Files: . ..
