I've tried this script. No matter how many files are in the
directory, it says that there is only one file. The directory I used
should have returned thirteen as a value.
I tried making the path '.' so it would count the files in the
same directory it was in. But it again said it there was only one
when there was also thirteen files in that directory.
Here is how I coded the call:
<?php
echo countfiles('.') or '[warning: unable to open dir]';
?>
I copied it from your post. The only alterations I made were
to make it three lines and change the directory location.
Regards,
Fred
