[bleythbe]

Just store each $file into an array ($array[] = $file)
and the sort($array).  Works dandy =>

Re: [PHP] sorting results of opendir()

[Steve Edberg]

Here's one way:


$dir = opendir('.');
unset($FileList);

while ($file=readdir($dir)) {

if($file!= '.' && $file != '..')
{
$FileList[] = $file;
}

}

sort $FileList;
reset($FileList);

while(list(, $F) = each($FileList)) {

echo "$F\n";

}

If you're using PHP4, you can replace everything after the 
sort($FileList) with the more compact:

foreach($FileList as $F) { echo "$F\n"; }


See

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php

for more info on sorting arrays.

RE: [PHP] sorting results of opendir()

[Jeff Lewis]

Why don't you add the $file to an array, then do a sort on the array?
sort($array)
