note 42325 added to function.readdir

Whilst writing a script to check a directory to see whether certain files existed, I used an original example from this page and modified so that in the first loop that checks the directory, there is a second that looks at a database recordset and tries to find the matches. I found an issue that I have not yet solved. I am not a PHP guru, so I might be missing something here. In the parent loop, $file is set correctly. As soon as your progress to the inner loop, $file becomes just a full stop (.) - I've no idea why. <? if ($handle = opendir($path)) : while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) : // Here $file is set correctly while($row = @ mysql_fetch_array($result)) : // Here $file is set to . endwhile; endwhile; closedir($handle); endif; ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42325 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42325&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42325&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
