If you are using Mac, or others systems that store information about the directory layout and etc, the function: function empty_dir($dir) { if (($files = @scandir($dir)) && count($files) <= 3) return true; else return false; } Must have the count($files) comparing with the number of hidden files! For example, I'm using Mac and the empty directory shows me three files: ".", ".." and ".DS_Store", so if I am planning to put the website online on my Mac, I've to count in the ".DS_Store" file! ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 189.38.130.157 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-dir.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111654 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111654 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111654 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
