Function-wise either would work. Peformance-wise, you might save a micro-second or two without the > comparison (I'm just speculating, I have no empirical evidence). As I was thinking "If we got 1 or more files, then we're OK," and not thinking boolean, my fingers typed out a comparison instead of a true/false test. So basically I could live with either idiom, and don't consider either to necessarily be "better."
Directory List
Is there a way in PHP to list the contents of a directory and have a link for each file automatically?
Thanks

<?php
$files = glob("{$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}/test/*.*");
if(count($files) > 0)
{
echo "<h3>Files:</h3>n<ul>n";
foreach($files as $path)
{
$file = basename($path);
echo "<li><a href='http://localhost/test/$file'>$file</a></li>n";
}
echo "</ul>n";
}
?>
