From the php manual
if ($handle = opendir('audio/1960')) {
echo "Directory handle: $handle\n";
echo "Entries:\n";
/* This is the correct way to loop over the directory. */
while (false !== ($entry = readdir($handle))) {
echo "$entry\n";
echo "<br>";
}
closedir($handle);
}
Is there a way to list the entries according to the order they are listed
in the directory?
such as
60-001
60-002
60-003

Yes, use readdir(). readdir() reads directory entries in the same order as
they exist in the directory.

Oh, you mean in a specific *sorted* order, and not by the order that the
directory entries are recorded.
For that, you are going to have to read the directory and sort it.
Sorry

And, for that, you could use scandir()
See http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.scandir.php

I can use it as is, just wasn't expecting the list to be shown that way.
Are you by any chance the same Lew Pitcher that is a radio dj in
Cincinnati?

Nope.
Although I do think it would have been fun to work at WKRP during the heydey
of Dr. Johnny Fever and Venus Flytrap. I always had a crush on Bailey.

Since you brought it up, I am in the first season!
I was driving taxis that year.
I was downtown apperaoching fountain square, stopped for the light and
noticed a guy standing beside a huge hollywood style camera on tripod.
The cab I was using that had a billboard on top of it for a local
restaurant chain. I was surprised to see my cab on the opening scenes!
Although the entire show was produced in Hollywood, the cast did make a
couple of short appearancces in Cinci.
When I mention the fact that WKRC-tv and WKRQ(fm) exist many people think
I'm joking. WEBN radio lays claim to the show being patterned after their
crazy antics they pull. But they weren't the only ones in town to do that
stuf.
The buikding they use in the show is just across the stree from WKRC-tv.

A directory does not have such "order". The sorting has to be done
afterwards.
