Hi Jas,
if I understood your question right, you can solve your problem best with
something like the following:
?php
$i=0; // counter
$files = array(); // array to store directory content
// open directory
$dir = opendir(PATH_TO_DIR);
// loop through directory and put filenames into an array
while ($file = readdir($dir)) {
$files[$i] = $file;
$i++;
}
// close directory
closedir($dir);
// now do something reasonable with your array
?

Ok here is what I would like to accomplish, I am sure someone has done
something like this but I need an example to go from since I am still not
able to write php from scratch...
I need to write a function to count the contents of a directory, like the
file names and place them into an array so I can use a select box to
select
the file path in which I would like to save to database, like I said I
don't
want someone to do it for me, I just need a resource such as a tutorial or
example to run with. Thanks a ton,
Jas
