I had to copy a directory but the top level folder name would be different at dest i.e. dirparent/dirchild -> diff/dirchild . I thought I would just copy and rename the destination but you can't rename non empty directories. I wrote this function to work around this: function RecursiveCopy($source, $dest, $diffDir = ''){ $sourceHandle = opendir($source); if(!$diffDir) $diffDir = $source; mkdir($dest . '/' . $diffDir); while($res = readdir($sourceHandle)){ if($res == '.' || $res == '..') continue; if(is_dir($source . '/' . $res)){ RecursiveCopy($source . '/' . $res, $dest, $diffDir . '/' . $res); } else { copy($source . '/' . $res, $dest . '/' . $diffDir . '/' . $res); } } } ---- Server IP: 59.162.86.8 Probable Submitter: 119.82.121.194 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.copy.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/104809 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104809 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/104809 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
