I've recently added this to my site to show all the files in the uploads directory.

<?php
$dir = "http://mysite.com/files/uploads/"; // Name of the directory you want to view using the script

// Open a known directory, and proceed to read its contents
if (is_dir($dir)) {
    if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
        while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
            echo "filename: $file : filetype: " . filetype($dir . $file) . "/n";
        }
        closedir($dh);
    }
}

if ($handle = opendir('.')) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
        if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
            echo "$file<br />";
        }
    }
    closedir($handle);
}
?>

For me I just have that code in the index.php page in the uploads directory
