Is all dirs in that path readable by the user you run it with? (try as
root..?) glob() returns false if there's some error..

Oh yeah, and the command returns:

bool(false)

I'm using sparc-solaris2.10. 

Was there a flag I needed to include for my php install to enable
glob() to work?

Try this on command line:

# php -r 'var_dump(glob("/home/apache/htdocs/testkt/*"));'

Exactly what Solaris version are you on?
Try this on command line:

# php -r 'var_dump(glob("/home/apache/htdocs/testkt/"));'

My apologies, I did not read all the instructions. 

Is there a flag I needed to enable when building php?

As for the code, I mistakenly left the ';' that caused the parse error.
The code should be as follows: 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>glob test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
   $path = "/home/apache/htdocs/testkt/";
     
    print("<b>glob:</b><br><br>");
    print_r(glob($path . '*.*'));
	
	print("<br><br>***********************<br><br>");
	
	print("<b>scandir:</b><br><br>");
    print_r(scandir($path));
?>
</body>
</html>
