opendir
(PHP 3, PHP 4 )
opendir -- open directory handle
Description
resource
opendir ( string path)
Returns a directory handle to be used in subsequent
closedir(), readdir(), and
rewinddir() calls.
If path is not a valid directory or the
directory can not be opened due to permission restrictions or
filesystem errors, opendir() returns FALSE and
generates a PHP error of level
E_WARNING. You can suppress the error output of
opendir() by prepending
'@' to the
front of the function name.
Example 1. opendir() example <?php
$dir = "/tmp/";
// Open a known directory, and proceed to read its contents
if (is_dir($dir)) {
if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
print "filename: $file : filetype: " . filetype($dir . $file) . "\n";
}
closedir($dh);
}
}
?> |
