http://localhost/cad.php?directory=c:/suncosys/cyl/../sbr/../act/2d/obsolete /.. [/snip] I would have to see your code to see how the $_GET array grows. [/snip]

Following is my code as it is. I wrote something similar in Python but it creates static html pages with way more code. I decided to switch to PHP and make it dynamic. <html><head> <title>Cad File Finder</title> </head> <body> <?php

     // this is not polished code with all the gotcha stuff in place
     // this is very much in the rough at this point.  I am not concerned with looks yet.
     $the_dir = $_GET['directory'];
     if($the_dir == '') $the_dir = 'c:/suncosys'; // edit to some existing directory
     echo $the_dir.'<br>';
     $dh = @opendir($the_dir);
     while (($filename = readdir($dh))) {
        if (is_dir($the_dir."/".$filename)) {
           echo "<a href=\"cad.php?directory=".$the_dir."/".$filename."\"/>".$filename."</a>";
           echo "<br/>";
        }
        if (is_file($the_dir."/".$filename)) {
           $the_file = $the_dir."/".$filename;
           $f_contents = file_get_contents($the_file);
           echo "<a href=\"file:///".$the_file."\">".$filename."</a>";
           echo " : file size : ".filesize($the_file);
           echo " : ";
           print strpos($f_content, "_Title_");
           fclose($f_handle); // close the file
                     echo "<br/>";
        }
     }
     @closedir($dh);
     $the_dir = NULL;
     $_PUT['directory'] = NULL; // ????
     // printed for debugging only
     echo 'the_dir: '.$the_dir.'<br>';
     echo 'get_dir: '.$_GET['directory'].'<br>';
     // phpinfo(); // uncommment to display php info
