Is there a way to make php create a text file that lists contents of a directory? This

is what I use from shell: csh -c "ls *jpg > list.photos"

This will give you an array called jpegsArray that will list every file with a .jpg extension in it. If you want the entire directory, just take the conditional out. Make sure to change your directory before running this. $location = "/usr/local/www/htdocs/images/"; if ($dir = @opendir($location)) { while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) { if (strstr($file,".") && $file!="." && $file!="..") { $thisFileArray = explode(".",strtolower($file)); if ($thisFileArray[1]=="jpg") { $jpegsArray[$ctr] = $file; $ctr ++; } } } } -- S.
