Here is my problem,
I want to read the contents of a dir, on a linux machine, in proper order
according to date (ie. from newest to oldest). My problem is I know how to
do it in perl....but not in php. I tried what I use is perl and it doesn't
work. Here is what I have that does work.
$stuff = `ls -C1t /your/dir/to/read/from/$author/`; ---works
now I want to parse up $stuff to get the 10 or so files names so I can link
to them. I just
cannot figure out how to do it in php.
This is how I would do it in perl/CGI
@stuff = same as above
foreach $filename (@stuff){
next if $filename !~ /(inc$/i;
print = "<a href=\"$author/$filename\">$filename</a>";
}
I need something pretty much the same in php...I just don't know why it
isn't working quite the same......
thanks for your time in advance.,
nixter
