Excluding folders with certain files

[bobgodwin]

I,m using this function to list folders and files as a list:

function ListFolders($path) {
	 //by Georgi Kralev
    $dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
    $dirname = end(explode("/", $path));
    echo ("<li>$dirname\n");
    echo "<ul>\n";
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir_handle))) {
        $exclude = array(".","..","_player_thumbs","Thumbs.db","audio.swf","both.swf");
        if(!in_array( $file, $exclude )) {
            if (is_dir($path."/".$file)) {
                ListFolders($path."/".$file);
            }
            else {
		if(preg_match('/(mp3|mp4|flv|swf)/', $file)) {
                echo "<li>$file</li>";
		}
            }
        }
    }
    echo "</ul>\n";
    echo "</li>\n";
   
    closedir($dir_handle);
}
ListFolders('media');

Is there a way to exclude folders with a certain file in it?
And a way to not list the parent directory?

I'm not sure if what you're doing is recursive (multiple directory levels) or not.
This method is a bit easier to do.

This might get you started ... try this as a test script ...

PHP Code:

<?php

// put only these types of files into an array.
$files = array_merge(
glob("$path/*.mp3"),
glob("$path/*.mp4"),
glob("$path/*.flv"),
glob("$path/*.swf")
);

// Display them all
foreach($files as &$file){
echo "$file<br />";
}
  
?>

I've tried glob. My else statement gives me the right files. Here's another script that I modified that doesn't show the parent directory:

PHP Code:

$path = "media";
$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
function list_dir($dir_handle,$path) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir_handle))) {
        $exclude = array(".","..","_player_thumbs","Thumbs.db");
        $dir =$path.'/'.$file;
        if(is_dir($dir) && !in_array($file, $exclude)) {
            $handle = @opendir($dir) or die("undable to open file $file");
            echo "\n$file<br />\n";
            list_dir($handle, $dir);
        }elseif(preg_match('/(mp3|mp4|flv|swf)/', $file) && !in_array($file, $exclude)) {
            echo "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$file<br />\n";
        }
    }
    closedir($dir_handle);
}
list_dir($dir_handle,$path); 


This returns this:

All
    both.swf
    countdown1.flv
    countdown2.flv
    countdown3.flv
    countdown4.flv
    Lady in Red.mp3
    load.mp4
    load_1.mp4
    Mean Ol' Girl.mp3
    Story of My Life.mp3
    Summer's Snow.mp3
    Table for Two.mp3
    test_mp4_1.mp4
Audio
    audio.swf
    Lady in Red.mp3
    Mean Ol' Girl.mp3
    Story of My Life.mp3
    Summer's Snow.mp3
    Table for Two.mp3
One Song
    singleaudio.swf
    Story of My Life.mp3

    countdown1.flv
    countdown2.flv

    countdown4.flv
    load.mp4
    load_1.mp4
    StatelyOneSong.swf
    test_mp4_1.mp4
    video.swf

What I want is to leave out the directories with the "singleaudio.swf" & "singlevideo.swf" to get this:

All
    both.swf
    countdown1.flv

    countdown3.flv
