Oct 15.2012

hello,
to share some files with friends, i created a directory under my website and uploaded several folders under that directory. each folder contain the files i want to share.

but when i type the path to the main directory, it says 403 forbidden. how can i automatically list folders under the main directory? and i want them to be clickable so that once they click on the folder name they should be able to see the files under the folder that they clicked.

@parkerfrank32Oct 15.2012 — OK i get the code that let me list all the folders and subfolders with files inside:

<?php

$dir = scandir("./");

echo "<ul>";

foreach($dir as $v1){

if($v1 != "." && $v1 != ".."){

if(is_file("./".$v1)){

echo "http://". $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ."/". $v1 ."<br />";

}

//// si es un directorio se lo recorre ///////

if(is_dir("./".$v1)){

echo "<li><strong>". $v1 ."</strong>";

$dir2 = scandir("./".$v1);

echo "<ul>";

foreach($dir2 as $v2){

if($v2 != "." && $v2 != ".."){

if(is_file("./".$v1."/".$v2)){

echo "http://". $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ."/". $v1 ."/". $v2 ."<br />";

}

//// si es un nuevo directorio se lo recorre ///////

if(is_dir("./".$v1."/".$v2)){

echo "<li><strong>". $v2 ."</strong>";

$dir3 = scandir("./".$v1."/".$v2);

echo "<ul>";

foreach($dir3 as $v3){

if($v3 != "." && $v3 != ".."){

if(is_file("./".$v1."/".$v2."/".$v3)){

echo "http://". $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ."/". $v1 ."/". $v2 ."/". $v3 ."<br />";

}

//// si es un nuevo directorio se lo recorre ///////

if(is_dir("./".$v1."/".$v2."/".$v3)){

echo "<li><strong>". $v3 ."</strong>";

$dir4 = scandir("./".$v1."/".$v2."/".$v3);

echo "<ul>";

foreach($dir4 as $v4){

if($v4 != "." && $v4 != ".."){

if(is_file("./".$v1."/".$v2."/".$v3."/".$v4)){

echo "http://". $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ."/". $v1 ."/". $v2 ."/". $v3 ."/". $v4 ."<br />";

}

//// si es un nuevo directorio se lo recorre ///////

if(is_dir("./".$v1."/".$v2."/".$v3."/".$v4)){

echo "<li><strong>". $v4 ."</strong>";

}

}

}

echo "</ul>";

}

}

}

echo "</ul>";

}

}

}

echo "</ul>";

}

}

}

echo "</ul>";
