dynamic creation of News entries.

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 06.2007

Hi everybody.

I have stories that appear on my front page using [i]PHP Include[/i].
Each item is an html table with text.
Files are stored in a folder called NEWS and named sequentially – news1.htm news2.htm and so on.

The index page is editied manually.

What I’d like to learn is how to create a php page (say scan.php) and have it reside in the NEWS folder along with a dynamic index page – so visitors can enter the News folder to peruse past items – without me having to manually edit the index file to link to them.

[i]Hope that makes sense. ?[/i]

I’m guessing some sort of recursive search is needed – but no idea where to start.

Can somebody steer me in the right direction?

Cheers in advance!

Sadly I have no idea what you mean though. Sorry!

Any chance of a small example?
