An easy way would be to to convert your code to a function and use
recursion with an is_dir conditional.

Here is a quick example, there are also a few examples in the user notes
at the PHP manual for opendir or readdir.

function lsdir($dir) {
        if ($handle = opendir($dir)) {
                while false !==($filename = readdir($handle)) {
                        if (is_dir($dir . '/' . $filename)) {
                                lsdir($dir . '/' . $filename);
                        } elseif (is_file($dir . '/' . $filename) && $filename != '.' 
&&
$filename != '..') {
                                // file display code here
                        }
                }

                closedir($dir);
        }
}               

I did not run the above code, just typed it for an example so the code
itself may or may not work but the concept will work.
