Yeah, PHP can do that. Toss this in a web directory and pull it up in
a browser.
<?php
$files = array();
$d = dir( './' );
while( false !== ( $entry = $d->read() ) )
{
if( $entry != '.'
&& $entry != '..'
&& !is_dir( $entry ) )
{
$files[] = $entry;
}
}
sort( $files );
foreach( $files as $file )
{
echo <<<EOF
<a href="$file">$file</a><br />
EOF;
}
?>
