List all folders on my computer (php)

I have tried:

$handle = opendir($path);

But what is the path? I put everything but the kitchen sink in there! I can’t get it to work. I’m on my localhost right now.

I did:

 opendir(dirname(__FILE__));

Here is what a got to work…

$dir = dirname(__FILE__);

// Open a known directory, and proceed to read its contents
if(is_dir($dir))
{
 if($dh = opendir($dir))
    {
    while(($file = readdir($dh)) !== false)
        {
        echo "filename: ".$file."<br />";
        }
    closedir($dh);
    }
}

Will do some cleaning to get the information I was wanting. However, thanks to “some” of you on Stackoverflow I like this code alot better for localhost application.

foreach(glob("*") as $filename)
{
echo $filename."<br />";
}

You’re looking for glob (for easy stuff) or DirectoryIterator (for a more OOP approach).

(Examples from the respective doc pages w/ some modifications)

<?php
// all files in current directory (including '.' and '..')
foreach (glob("*") as $filename) {
    echo "$filename size " . filesize($filename) . "\n";
}
?>

<?php
// all files in current directory (excluding'.' and '..')
$dir = new DirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__));
foreach ($dir as $fileinfo) {
    if (!$fileinfo->isDot()) {
        var_dump($fileinfo->getFilename());
    }
}
?>
