I have a folder, in that folder there are many pages, for example , page1.php,page2.php , pag3.php .. and i want to keep adding pages in that folder later.Now i want to display the names of all the pages which are in that folder but without extension.. for example, i want to display.like
archive:
page1 (Not page1.php)
page2
page3

and i want that it adds all the pages available in that folder, even which i will add later.
please help me regarding to this.
Thanks

PHP Code:

<?php



$dir = './pages/';

$handle = opendir($dir);



while (($file = readdir($handle)) !== false)

{

     if ( !in_array($file, array('.', '..') ) )

     {

           echo basename($file, '.php') ."<br />\n";

     }

}



closedir($handle);



?>

Untested but should work.

Nico's code modified to allow alpha sorting

PHP Code:

<?php



$dir = './pages/';

$handle = opendir($dir);

$file_list = array();



while (($file = readdir($handle)) !== false)

{

     if ( !in_array($file, array('.', '..') ) )

     {

           $file_list[] = basename($file, '.php');

     }

}



closedir($handle);



asort($file_list);



foreach($file_list as $key => $value){

     echo "$value <br />\n";

}



?>

You will need to have 2 loops one nested within the other.

Assuming you only want to grab .php files:

PHP Code:

<?php



$fileArr = glob( './pages/*.php' );



for ( $i = 1; $i <= count( $fileArr ); $i++ )

{

    $file = basename( $fileArr[ $i - 1 ], '.php' );

    echo "{$i}. {$file}<br />\n";

}



?>

No need for multiple loops.

Here is a way which forms the columns with 10 rows per column -

PHP Code:

<?php 



$dir = './pages/'; 

$handle = opendir($dir); 

$file_list = array(); 



while (($file = readdir($handle)) !== false) 

{ 

     if(!in_array($file, array('.', '..')) AND is_file($file)) 

     { 

           $file_list[] = basename($file, '.php'); 

     } 

} 



closedir($handle); 



natcasesort($file_list); // do a natural sort



$file_list = array_values($file_list); //reindex the array 0, 1, 2... so the following loop will work



$rows = 10; // how many rows in a column

$row = array(); // array to hold each row

$cnt = count($file_list); // total number of files

$row_number = 0;



for($index = 0; $index < $cnt; $index++){

    $row[$row_number] .= "<td>".$file_list[$index]."</td>";

    $row_number++;

    if($row_number >= $rows){

        $row_number = 0; // reset for next column

    }

}



$message = "<table border=1>";

foreach($row as $value){ 

    $message .= "<tr>";

    $message .= $value; 

    $message .= "</tr>\n";

} 

$message .= "</table>";

echo $message;

?>

In addition to the code added to form the columns, this has two differences from the original code - it only lists files (it does not lists folder names within the folder) and it uses a natural sort (where file1.php, file10.php, file2.php are listed in the proper order file1.php, file2.php file10.php)

Edit: This also correctly orders upper and lowercase file names. With a case sensitive sort and the glob(...) function Page1.php (starts with uppercase) will appear before anything.php (starts with lowercase)

A little fix on Mab's code.

This:

PHP Code:

if(!in_array($file, array('.', '..')) AND is_file($file)) 

Should be

PHP Code:

if(!in_array($file, array('.', '..')) AND is_file($dir . $file))

Thanks (I tested this in the same folder with the script and did not catch this for a different folder path.)
