OK, here's the code I wound up with : Importantly, I needed to have error_reporting(1); at the top of the script, otherwise all those warnings would have driven me crazy :) The recursive function thereafter was: function traverseDir($item_to_test, $level, $file_path) { $level = $level + 1; if (strcmp($item_to_test, ".") == 0) { $fullpath = <some path>; } else { $fullpath = $file_path . "/" . $item_to_test; } if((boolean)opendir($fullpath) == 1) { if ($handle = opendir($fullpath)) { while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { //exclude the . and .. files if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { traverseDir($file, $level, $fullpath); } } } } else { echo str_repeat("&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;", $level * 2) . $file_path . "/" . $item_to_test . "<br>\n"; } } All that $level really was for was to indent the echo during the script output, but it servers as a kind of counter to find how many levels deep your directory structure goes... Thanks everyone for your help :) Jason =)
