You are under a wrong assumption. You think os.listdir() returns a list of absolute path elements. In fact it returns just a list of names. You have to os.path.join(dir, file) to get an absolute path. Anyway stop reinventing the wheel and use os.walk() as I already explained. You can easily spot the depth with "directory.count(os.sep)". os.path.normpath() helps you to sanitize the path before counting the number of os.sep.
