Note Submitter: chris at chrischurch dot net ---- Was getting all kinds of directory output, printout, or listing including hidden file on web page from innocently reading a directory in PHP. This was happening in the function below, and the fix is the "@" sign in not one, but two places. function read_file ( ) { //http://www.zend.com/manual/function.readdir.php global $image_path , $image_fname , $my_error_check ; $image_fname = "" ; if ( $handle = @opendir ( $image_path ) ) { while (false !== ( $file = @readdir ( $handle ) ) ) { if ( $file != "." && $file != ".." ) { if ( $my_error_check ) echo ( "file: $file<br>") ; $image_fname = $image_fname . $file . ":" ; if ( $my_error_check ) echo ( "image_fname: $image_fname<br>") ; } } closedir ( $handle ) ; } if ( $my_error_check ) echo ("leaving read_file<br>") ; }
