note 15257 added to class.dir

Regarding the sort order... Under *nix, files are placed in the file system in the order that they are created. Therefore, you get the oldest first. Under NTFS, files are *always* stored in the file system in alphabetical order, no matter what the creation date. So, when the read() command pulls the next file, it merely depends on your file system. FAT32 servers probably give a slightly random order, NTFS servers give alphabetical, and *nix servers give date order. Hope that clears things up for you all! http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.dir.php
