html and php file list for download

Asked by SimonUK in Web Languages/Standards

Tags: php, file

Hi all

In this question:

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/Q_21833113.html

I got some handy assistance generating an HTML page that lists all the files in a given folder, and making them available for download.  The one I'm using is this one (see original thread above for author credit):

<?php

function make_row ($s) {
  return "<tr><td>$s</td><td><a href='files/$s'>Download</a></td></tr>\n";
}

$files = glob('*');
// Fetch all file names

$files = array_map("make_row", $files);
// Format the file names for output

$str = implode("", $files);
// Join the array to make it a string

$str = "<table border='1' bordercolor='white'><col style='background-color: #CCCCFF;'></col><col style='background-color: #9999FF;'></col>$str</table>";
// Format it further

echo $str;
// Print the string.

?>

What I'd like to do next is:

- Specify a directory for the file listing (so I can list files from a dir other than the one the script exists in)
- Make a left-click trigger a 'Save file as...' dialog box, rather than relying on users right-clicking
- Show the date and time of the files listed
- Not show the complete path to the file on the page - just the filename.  I appreciate the path has to exist in the link to the file, of course.

Thanks !


Simon
