$thefiles = array();
$reg = '/\.(zip|csv|txt|doc|jpg|bmp|ext|php|htm|html)$/i';
if ($handle = opendir($path)) {
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
if ($file !== 'fileviewer.php' &&
preg_match($reg, $file) &&
is_file("$path/$file")) {
$thefiles[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handle);
rsort($thefiles);
reset($thefiles);
}
When $path ends with a trailing slash, do:
is_file("$path$file")

Not without directory browsing enabled afterwhich you would to be able to
