Re: reading/parsing file names

php.net/substr php.net/ereg php.net/preg_match foreach ( $files as $filename ) if ( substr($filename, -4) == '.jpg' ) array_push($jpegs, $filename); Keep in mind, though, that not all JPEG files end with jpg. There is also jpe and jpeg, and you have to consider case sensitivity.
