There's a mistake in this guide. If you try to check declared classes in php4.1 or more you will notice that no "dir" or "Dir" class exists but instead a "Directory" class do; indeed if you declare a class with name "Directory" the compiler will return a "already declared class" error but no such error will appear if you declare a "Dir" or "dir" class. Also, imo, there is no the need of a "dir" class with 3 simple methods because it would be easier to implement a custom directory class than using the one provided by php. Here the code to check this fault: $arr = get_declared_classes(); print_r($arr); print_r(get_class_methods($arr[array_search("Directory",$arr)])); print_r(get_class_methods($arr[array_search("dir",$arr)])); ---- Server IP: 213.92.11.19 Probable Submitter: 82.51.58.153 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.dir.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61774 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61774&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61774&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
