[PHP] Filenames with spaces in them

[Mike Eheler]

Consider this code for traversing through a directory structure:

<?php

function traverse($path='.') {
   $path = realpath($path);
   $dir = opendir($path);

   echo "\nDirectory : $path\n";
   echo str_pad('',76,'-')."\n";

   while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))) {
     if (is_dir($file) && $file != '.' && $file != '..') {
       traverse("$path/$file");
       echo $file;
     }
   }

   closedir($dir);
}

echo '<pre>';
traverse();
echo '</pre>';

?>

Now when I run it in a directory that has a file with spaces in it's 
name.. for examples purposes, the file willbe called "file name with 
spaces".

Directory : /home/mike/php/test
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Warning:  stat failed for file name with spaces (errno=2 - No such file 
or directory) in /home/mike/php/dirdump.php on line 10

Any ideas why this error happens and what I can do to get around it?

Mike
