note 87527 added to function.scandir

Back in the saddle of scandir I wrote this function for a function that I needed to seperate directories from files. Since I am still learning from my last example way below I would figure I would add it so it can be criticized. <?php function dirlist($dir, $bool = "dirs"){ $truedir = $dir; $dir = scandir($dir); if($bool == "files"){ // dynamic function based on second pram $direct = 'is_dir'; }elseif($bool == "dirs"){ $direct = 'is_file'; } foreach($dir as $k => $v){ if(($direct($truedir.$dir[$k])) || $dir[$k] == '.' || $dir[$k] == '..' ){ unset($dir[$k]); } } $dir = array_values($dir); return $dir; } ?> <?php print_r(dirlist("../")); //confirm array of subdirectories print_r(dirlist("../", "files") // confirm list on files in the directory ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 24.38.173.219 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.scandir.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/87527 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87527 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/87527 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
