Automated Filelist.

[Christian-Josef Schrattenthaler]

Hi!

I want to build a PHP-Site, wich lists some downloadable files in some
directories from our internet server.

Can anyone tell me some hints, to build such a page?

It would also be fine, if i could generate a description to the download,
which is generated from the filenames.

Thanks and kind greetings,
Christian.

This would be a good place to start:

Dunno if this helps as I've not managed to use it yet - but when I compiled
my PHP I did a search for any php files that came with my tar ball - There
were many, including some "pear" scripts... If you take a look in your
ext/pear directory (if you installed using a tar ball, it will sit somewhere
in there) you should find a System.php file that has a class for dealing
with directories and files... Maybe that will help...
