hi,
i'm attempting to open a parent directory that contains many sub
directories and a few text and .pdf files. i want to test to see if the
current file/dir is a directory before attempting to open it and test the
filenames within it. i'm trying to use -d test but it doesn't seem to work
and says that everything is not a dir when it is! i am accessing a network
share.
thanks for any help!

sub numFilesInDir
{
# $dirpath path to Dir to test example: '\\\eggpayorteam\How To Test'
my $dirpath = $_[0];
my $file;
my $dir;
my $counter = 0;
opendir(DIR, $dirpath) or die "can't opendir $dirpath: $!";
while (defined($dir = readdir(DIR)))
{
unless ($dir eq '.' or $dir eq '..')
{
if (-d $dir)
{
print "true dir name: $dir\n";
##### open this dir and check for number of files within it
}
else
{
print "false filez found: $dir\n";
}
$counter++;
}
}
closedir(DIR);
return $counter;
}
