yes, glob works well. here is an example to get pictures inside a folder ($path) foreach(glob($path."/*/{*.gif,*.jpg,*.JPG,*.jpeg,*.JPEG,*.png}", GLOB_BRACE) as $filename){

                       $pics[]=$filename;
               }

They can upload a PDF, DOC or TXT file. They may wish to upload one of each. I am using file_exists for each case, but is there an easier/tidier way of doing it? Thanks in advance, Tom try the glob() function, something like: $id = getUserId(); foreach (glob("/path/to/user/files/$id.*") as $file) {

       echo $file,"<br />";
