I had problems getting it to work because I'm not the best at PHP, but there IS a way to use opendir to list things in alphabetical order. I'm using it for my university project. All you have to do is read the filenames into an array, sort the array and then do what you want with the filenames.... like this.... So that you know what all my variables mean in this - $stats is the folder that it looks in for the files - for example ?stats=images would look in the images folder Obviously you will want to modify it so it fits your needs, but I thought you guys would want this - especially if your server doesnt have the latest version of php. =========================== <?php $i = 0; $arraycount = 0; $home="/home/cabal/public_html/b146/admin/$stats"; if ($stats) { $dircheck="/home/cabal/public_html/b146/admin/$stats"; if (is_dir($dircheck)) { if ($handle = opendir($home)) { while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { $path = "$home/$file"; $extension = array_pop(explode('.', basename($path))); $filearray[$i] = $file; $i++; } } } closedir($handle); } else { echo "INCORRECT SELECTION"; } } else { echo "NOTHING SELECTED"; } echo "&nbsp;"; echo("<table width='100%' border='1'><tr><td><b><font color='#ff0000'>"); echo("$stats : Log File"); echo("</b></font></td><td><font color='#FF0000'><b>Page Views</b></font></td></tr>"); sort($filearray); reset($filearray); while (list($key, $val) = each($filearray)) { $includearray = "$home/$filearray[$key]"; echo("<tr><td>"); echo("$val"); echo("</td><td>"); include($includearray); echo("</td></tr>"); } echo("</table>"); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.opendir.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+41042 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+41042&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+41042&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
