I'm working on it

Here's what I got:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl

opendir(DIR,".");
@files = sort(grep(/\.php$/,readdir(DIR)));
closedir(DIR);

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

$all_data = "";
foreach $file (@files) {
	open(FILE,"$file") || die("Could not find $file. $!");
	@lines = <FILE>;
	close(FILE);
	foreach $line (@lines) {
		$line =~ s/\n/\<br\>/g; # optional
		$line =~ s/\</&lt;/g; # optional
		$all_data .= "$line";
	}
	$all_data .= "<br>";
}

print $all_data;

I hope it's useful to you.

Mzzl, Chris

hey thanks
gives an error tho/
the logs say file does not exsist ...this is not true or it would be 404...any ideas?

Oops, I tested it with my .php files 'cuz I didn't have any .txt files in my cgi-bin. And I found another little problem. Here is the new code, try this:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl

opendir(DIR,".");
@files = sort(grep(/\.txt$/,readdir(DIR)));
closedir(DIR);

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

$all_data = "";
foreach $file (@files) {
	open(FILE,"$file") || die("Could not find $file. $!");
	@lines = <FILE>;
	close(FILE);
	foreach $line (@lines) {
		$line =~ s/\</&lt;/g; # optional
		$line =~ s/\n/\<br\>/g; # optional
		$all_data .= "$line";
	}
	$all_data .= "<br>";
}

print $all_data;

Mzzl, Chris

ok cool,
still does the same thing....im thinking it means the dir is missing...i cant see in there where the dir is? it looks like the dir is " . "

opendir(DIR,".");
"." is indeed the directory. It means "current dir", so this script opens the current dir, wich is where your script is running in.

You can change the dot to anything you want. Like "texts" to open a dir named "texts".

$all_data = "";
foreach $file (@files) {
open(FILE,"$file") || die("Could not find $file. $!");
