you could first read the files and their modified-dates into an array; sort
the array; and finally build a select widget from the array...
function sortByTime($a, $b)
{
if ($a["time"] == $b["time"]) return 0;
return ($a["time"] < $b["time"]) ? -1 : 1;
}
while (false !== ($file = readdir("/some/directory/")))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != "..")
$files[] = array("file" => $file, "time" =>
filectime("/some/directory/".$file));
}
usort($files, "sortBytime");
echo "<select>";
while (list(,$filearr) = each($files))
echo "<option value=\"".$filearr["file"]."\">".$filearr["file"]."
".$filearr["time"];
