Be aware that is_dir() and is_file() will not work on very large (for me >2gb) files (also see http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.is-file.php#56334).
You might try this approach - it works for me:
<?php
function isDir($dir) {
$cwd = getcwd();
$returnValue = false;
if (@chdir($dir)) {
chdir($cwd);
$returnValue = true;
}
return $returnValue;
}
?>
Please keep in mind that isDir() will fail on directories which cannot be chdired due to permission
settings for example.
