Here's another example: (more error checking probably needed) http://hills.ccsf.edu/~pfurma02/index.php -modified from "screen" to "jpeg" -eliminates screens that are already in the menu <h2>JPEG Image Menu:</h2> <?php chdir (JPEG_DIRECTORY); $fh=opendir("./"); # extract & count screens while ($file = readdir($fh)) {
          if (strstr ($file, '.jpg')){
              $screens[] = $file; # store screename
          }
} foreach ($screens as $value){ # eliminate unwanted screens # if (!(ereg('private|test', $value, $found))){
    ?>
    <a href="index.php?SCREEN=
    <?php print $value;
    ?>">
    <?php print $value;
?></a><?php } }
