Thanks Willem,

I changed the test code as follows and used chdir to move into the base
directory first, then I just opened "." as the directory and checked the
file, it works. Code as follows checking for video files in a category
folder:

<?php
$cat_seq = 1;
$path = "e:\\videos\\$cat_seq";
chdir($path);
$dh = opendir(".") or die('cannot open directory');
while ($file = readdir($dh)) {
if ( is_file($file) ) {
echo $file;
}
}
?>
