<div>
opendir(&quot;..&quot;) has always worked for me. Can you give some information as to what system you are running currently?<br />
<br />
Also, try:<br />
<br />
opendir(&quot;../&quot;)<br />
<br />
I do not think the slash should make a big difference, as both methods work for me. Just to be sure though.<br />
<br />
