I have 3 SunOS boxes, all running the same version of OS, apache and php. I
have a page on all three servers that will allow a user to select a
directory from a drop down box and upon selecting the directory, be able to
select a file to view from a drop down box. When the user selects the
directory, the page is refreshed and a second drop down box containing the
file names is displayed.
Here is where I'm running into some problems. I need the file listing to be
sorted as if I were performing an 'ls -lt' listing on the server itself.
I'm using the readdir() function to get the file names and load them into an
array. I then walk down the array backwards to build my drop-down list. On
2 of my servers, this method works great! However, on the other one, it is
throwing the most recently created files in the middle of the list.
Here is the code that I'm using:
$handle=opendir("$path");
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) $filenames[] = $file;
for($i=(count($filenames) - 1); $i >= 0; $i--) {
$selected = ( $cboListFiles == $filenames[$i] ? " selected" : "" );
if ($filenames[$i] != "." and $filenames[$i] !="..") {
echo "<option value=". "$filenames[$i]" . " $selected>" .
"$filenames[$i]" . "</option>\n";
}
}
Even if I take out the sorting, the file listing order does not change.
Any ideas about what may be causing this?
Thanks!
Joe
