PHP- LIST ALL FILES IN A DIRECTORY

I’m working on a website for a client at the moment, and one of the features I need to do is display a bunch of images in a particular directory.

It’s actually a very simple process in PHP and only requires a small amount of code. I’ve seen a lot of examples on other forums/websites that use a ridiculous amount of code to get the same result, and i’m not quite sure why.

Here’s how to list all files in a directory

//path to directory to scan $directory = "../images/team/harry/";   //get all image files with a .jpg extension. $images = glob($directory . "*.jpg");   //print each file name foreach($images as $image) { echo $image; }
