note 59965 added to function.opendir

<?php /* The below function will list all folders and files with in a directory It is a function with a recursive subfunction within. The reason I used a subfunction is because I did not know how to properly pass variables within a recursive function. *This function has no limit on the number of levels down you can search. *This was the cleanest method I could come up with. *The array structure was one that worked for me. ARGUMENTS: $startdir => specify the directory to start from; format: must end in a "/" $searchSubdirs => True/false; True if you want to search subdirectories $directoriesonly => True/false; True if you want to only return directories $maxlevel => "all" or a number; specifes the number of directories down that you want to search */ function filelist($startdir="./", $searchSubdirs=1, $directoriesonly=0, $maxlevel="all") { global $ignoredDirectory, $directorylist; //list the directory names that you want to ignore $ignoredDirectory[] = "."; $ignoredDirectory[] = ".."; $ignoredDirectory[] = "_vti_cnf"; $directorylist = array(); //define $directorylist to be used by function filesearch function filesearch ($startdir="./", $searchSubdirs=1, $directoriesonly=0, $level=1, $maxlevel) { //subfuntion that searched through the directories global $ignoredDirectory, $directorylist; //initialize globals in subfunction if (is_dir($startdir)) { //if the directory exists start if ($dh = opendir($startdir)) { //if you can open the directory continue while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) { //while there are items in the directory if (!(array_search($file,$ignoredDirectory) > -1)) { //test to see if it is one of the ignored directories $parentarray = explode("/",$startdir); //these 2 lines will parse out the parent folder $parent = $parentarray[(count($parentarray)-2)]; if (filetype($startdir . $file) == "dir") { //the current item is a directory //build your directory array however you choose; add other file details that you want. $directorylist[$startdir . $file]['level'] = $level; $directorylist[$startdir . $file]['dir'] = 1; $directorylist[$startdir . $file]['name'] = $file; $directorylist[$startdir . $file]['path'] = $startdir; $directorylist[$startdir . $file]['parent'] = $parent; if ($searchSubdirs) { if ((($maxlevel) == "all") or ($maxlevel > $level)) { filesearch($startdir . $file .
