This question already has an answer here:
I have the following code that I am using to list all the files in a specific directory which I then return as JSON
<?php
header('Content-Type: application/json');
$vars = filter_input_array( INPUT_POST, FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING );
$id = $vars['id'];
$dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/resources/' . $id;
$list = array(); //main array
if(is_dir($dir)){
if($dh = opendir($dir)){
while(($file = readdir($dh)) != false){
if($file == "." or $file == ".."){
//...
} else { //create object with two fields
array_push($list, $file);
}
}
}
echo json_encode($list);
}
?>
However, as well as returning the files, it is also returning a subdirectory that is also in that folder. How do change the if statement to also check whether it is an actual file that has been retrieved?
