If you want to check for images in a directory and list them all then try this. Perhaps you can play with this and create some goodness. It basically puts all images (via extension def) into an array, named $files. <snip> $dir = "images/"; function Get_Image_list($dir) { if(!$dir) { $dir = "."; } $file_array = array(); $dir_handle = opendir($dir); $a = 0; while($file = readdir($dir_handle)) { if((preg_match('/jpg/',$file)) || (preg_match('/png/',$file)) || (preg_match('/gif/',$file)) || (preg_match('/jpeg/',$file))) { $file_array[$a] = $file; $a++; } } return $file_array; } // not let's create your array $files = Get_Image_list($dir); </snip> if your file is in this array then it exists :) good luck! philip olson -- be outside the box.
