[PHP] RE: sorting results of opendir()

[Andrew Chase]

Try reading the directory contents into an array, sorting it, *then*
outputting the contents of the array:

$dir = opendir(.);

$dirlist = array();
$index = 0;
while($file = readdir($dir)  $file != .  $file != ..){
$dirlist[$index++] = $file;
}

sort($dirlist);

foreach($dirlist as $file){
echo $filebr;
}
