Ave,

This Works!!!

   <?php
   foreach (glob("vox/".$row['PHONE']."*.vox") as $value) {
   echo "<OPTION
VALUE='takekey_download.php?F=vox/".basename($value)."'>".basename($value)."
</option>";
   }
   ?>

Dug up glob() in the manual, followed examples and details ­ works like a
charm!
Full code:

   <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
   function openVox(form) {
       var newIndex = form.voxSelect.selectedIndex;
       if (newIndex == 0) {
           //alert( "Please select a file to download!" );
       } else {
           dlvox = form.voxSelect.options[newIndex].value;
           window.location.assign(dlvox);
       }
   }
   </SCRIPT>
   <FORM NAME="voxForm" STYLE="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
   <SELECT NAME="voxSelect" onChange="openVox(this.form)">
   <OPTION>... Choose Recording ...</OPTION>
   <?php
   foreach (glob("vox/".$row['PHONE']."*.vox") as $value) {
   echo "<OPTION
VALUE='takekey_download.php?F=vox/".basename($value)."'>".basename($value)."
</option>";
   }
   ?>
   </SELECT>
   </FORM>

Thanks!

I see you're using glob now, but I found this comment in your other thread:
"Yes, and while I dig up on glob(), to be quite honest, the exec is working
very effectively and fast for my searches & download application - so can't
complain about it one bit."

I didn't test both myself, but you might want to see the difference in
performance.
