It's not wise to use this function when running in a webserver
|
|
environment, because it's not possible to reset the root
|
|
directory to / again at the end of the request. This function
|
|
will only function correct when running as CGI this way.

|
A pseudo-object oriented mechanism for reading a directory. The
|
|
given <parameter>directory</parameter> is opened. Two properties
|
|
are available once the directory has been opened. The handle
|
|
property can be used with other directory functions such as
|
|
<function>readdir</function>, <function>rewinddir</function> and
|
|
<function>closedir</function>. The path property is set to path
|
|
the directory that was opened. Three methods are available:
|
|
read, rewind and close.

If <parameter>path</parameter> is not a valid directory or the
|
|
directory can not be opened due to permission restrictions or
|
|
filesystem errors, <function>opendir</function> returns &false; and
|
|
generates a PHP error. You can suppress the error output of
|
|
<function>opendir</function> by prepending `@' to the front of
|
|
the function name.
