[PHP] rec_copy

Thanks all! I needed to check if pathname exists:

if (!is_dir($to_path))
{
  echo "Creating destination path<br>";
 create_path($to_path);
}

John Steele helped out with a few lines of code. I added a comment to
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.copy.php

Here is the result:

<?
#######################################
$date = date ("Ymd");

#######################################
#$from_path = "c:\\tmp\\cp\\from";
$from_path = "c:/program files/easyphp/ccl_www";
$to_path = "c:/tmp/cp/to/$date/ccl_www";

#######################################
if (!is_dir($to_path))
{
  echo "Creating destination path<br>";
 create_path($to_path);
}
#######################################
if(!is_dir($from_path))
{
  echo "failed";
  exit;
}
else
{
  rec_copy($from_path, $to_path);
  echo "Files copied from $from_path and backed up to $to_path\n";
}

function rec_copy($from_path, $to_path)
{
  if (!is_dir($to_path))
#   create_path($to_path);
    mkdir($to_path, 0777);

  $this_path = getcwd();

  if (is_dir($from_path))
  {
    chdir($from_path);
    $handle = opendir('.');

    while (($file = readdir($handle)) !== false)
    {
      if (($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
      {
        if (is_dir($file))
        {
          rec_copy ($from_path."\\".$file,  $to_path."\\".$file);
          chdir($from_path);
        }
        if (is_file($file))
        {
          copy($from_path."\\".$file, $to_path."\\".$file);
        }
      }
    }
    closedir($handle);
  }
  else
  {
    echo "if (is_dir($from_path))<br>";
  }
}
############################################################
