I answered my own question with a little digging on the PHPBuilder page...
is_file() and is_dir() will report everything as a directory unless you
first chdir() to the directory. After I added the chdir() it worked. Anyone
know if that's going to be changed in the future?
(I love recursion!)
<?
function Check_For_Slash($path) {
if (substr($path, (strlen($path) - 1), 1) != "/") {
$path = $path . "/";
}
return($path);
}
function Get_Directory_Listing($path) {
$base_dir = "/inetpub/wwwroot"; // all paths will be relative to
webserver
$base_dir = Check_For_Slash($base_dir);
if ($dir_handle = opendir($base_dir . $path)) {
while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) {
$path = Check_For_Slash($path);
chdir($base_dir . $path);
if (($file != ".") && ($file != "..")) {
if (is_dir($file)) {
chdir($base_dir . $path . $file);
print($file . "<DIR>\n");
Get_Directory_Listing($path . $file);
print("</DIR>\n");
}
elseif (is_file($file)) {
print("<A HREF='" . $path . $file . "'>" . $file
.
"</A><BR>\n");
}
else {
print("I don't know what " . $file . " is. <BR>\n");
}
}
}
closedir($dir_handle);
}
}
Get_Directory_Listing("/somedir/public");
?>
