Note Submitter: oryan at zareste dot com ---- There might be a bit of truth to that. If, by chance, the webmaster made a form saying "type a random directory name here" and used that in the function, there'd be a problem. So let's eliminate the 'function' part $files=shell_exec("ls directory"); $result=explode("\n",$files); '$result' will now be an array of the directory files. You can use variables in the shell_exec command, but don't use anything that could be user-sent.
