Hello I'm using PHP 4.3.9, under Windows XP with Apache. I have the following directory structure on a given app, i'm working on. photos/

folder1 folder2 folder3 ... and so on

I'm trying the following code to make a list of folder under photos:

                      $d = dir('photos/');

while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {

			    if (is_dir($entry) && $entry != '.' && $entry != '..')
 			    	echo $entry . "<br />";

} For some strange reason, that echoes nothing. is_dir is returning false on every folder (dir) under photos, except for '.' and '..' dirs. Can someone explain this?

What do you get if you just echo out $entry without the if() statement? Do you get a list of the directories you'd expect? Edward Vermillion evermillion@doggydoo.net
