Change

if($file != '.' && $file != '..')

to

if($file != '.' && $file != '..' && file != 'index.php')

By the way you can write as

echo "<a href='$path$narray[$i]'>$narray[$i]</a><br/>";

and still be sufficient. As long as $path is correct you do not need char(34) since a single quote will suffice.

And when only one set of double quotes are used, no need to use periods to separate variables.

But the question I have is: how can I be able to hide the file extension? Is there a way or is it just too much?

---UPDATE---

Figured out how to replace

$filename = str_replace(".htm", ".", $narray[$i]);

OR

$filename = str_replace(".htm", "", $narray[$i]);

Place this right before echo (in my case) solved my issue. The problem was that the replacing string had to have a value. I left it as just " " and it wasn't working.

list files by extension from a directory with phpHow To Sort Files Of A Directory using Php

Thanks itssami, for your great code, I just need to add a little thing, I would like to restrict the list to the .Html files only, I mean, if I have a directory with let say .Html, .Txt and .Jpg files but I only want to list .Html ones, is there a way to do this?

[iGuest]

 any chance to make this code to sort by date, or time so I can display the files in descending order from the oldest to the newest.??

 

<?$path = " ";$narray=array();$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");Echo "Directory Listing of $path<br/>";$I=0;While($file = readdir($dir_handle)){   if(is_dir($file))   {   continue;   }   else if($file != '.' && $file != '..')   {   //echo "<a href='$path/$file'>$file</a><br/>";   $narray[$I]=$file;   $I++;   }}Rsort($narray);

for($I=0; $I<sizeof($narray); $I++){Echo "<a href=".Chr(34).$path.$narray[$I].Chr(34).">".$narray[$I]."</a><br/>";

}

//closing the directoryClosedir($dir_handle);?>

 

thanks in advance

Wondering if any one can help me out.
I can use the following script to display the files and folders but only the files are in alphabetical and not the folders, I know it will be using another array but cant seem to get it to work.
If you want a link to the sample page just ask me to send an email, Im sure the forum rules were i cant post a link to my site, but if im told its ok i will.

Im posting here because i used a little script from this Post to help with ording the files.

I attached a screen shot to show what im doing .

Thanks

<?php

function ListFolder($path)
{

$narray=array(); 
    //using the opendir function
    $dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
    
    //Leave only the lastest folder name
    $dirname = end(explode("/", $path));
$i=0;    
    //display the target folder.
    echo ("<li><img alt='PDF' src='../images/Folder.png'> $dirname\n");
    echo "<ul>\n";

    while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir_handle))) 
    {

   if($file!="." && $file!="..")
        {
            if (is_dir($path."/".$file))
            {
                //Display a list of sub folders.
                ListFolder($path."/".$file);
            }
            else
            {
                //Display a list of files.
//                echo "<img alt='PDF' src='../images/PDF.png'> $file<br/>";
                $narray[$i]=$file; 
                $i++; 
           }
            
        }
   }

    //closing the directory
    closedir($dir_handle);
sort($narray); 
 
for($i=0; $i<sizeof($narray); $i++) 
{ 
echo "<img alt='PDF' src='../images/PDF.png'> $narray[$i]<br/>";
} 
    echo "</ul>\n";
    echo "</li>\n";

}
?>

I got it im giving complete code to allow even expandable file structure hope this helps someone besides my self.
as note i changed quite a bit.

if you want the java files just ask and i will send them to you

<?php

/* Rendering */ 
function list_dir($path) 
{ 
$items = get_sorted_entries($path); 

if (!$items) 
return; 


foreach($items as $item) 
{ 
if ($item->type=='dir') 
{ 
    echo ("<li><img alt='PDF' src='../../../images/Folder.png'>".$item->entry."\n");
    echo "<ul>\n";
list_dir($item->full_path); 
} 
else 
{ 
echo "<img alt='PDF' src='../../../images/PDF.png'> ".$item->entry."<br/>";
} 
} 

echo "</ul>"; 
echo "</li>\n";

} 

/* Finding */ 
function get_sorted_entries($path) 
{ 
$dir_handle = @opendir($path) ; 
$items = array(); 

while (false !== ($item = readdir($dir_handle))) 
{ 
$dir =$path.'/'.$item; 
if ( $item == '.' || $item =='..' ) 
continue; 

if(is_dir($dir)) 
{ 
$items[] = (object) array('type'=>'dir','entry'=>$item, 'full_path'=>$dir); 
} 
else 
{ 
$items[] = (object) array('type'=>'file','entry'=>$item, 'full_path'=>$dir); 
} 
} 
closedir($dir_handle); 

usort($items,'_sort_entries'); 

return $items; 
} 

/* Sorting */ 
function _sort_entries($a, $B) 
{ 
return strcmp($a->entry,$b->entry); 
}
?>
