That one worked. Yes, there is a subdirectory in the
directory in question and no it shouldn't be counted for what my
purposes are.
Is there any way to limit it to count .jpg files (I don't
see any screening in this example)? I want to return the number of
images in the directory (all of them are .jpg and will continue to be)
and not any text, html, php, or other types of files.
I'm surprised that PHP doesn't have functions built into it to
do this.
The site I am doing this on is running PHP version 5.2.5.
Regards,
Fred
