Re: [PHP-WIN] fread() and windows directory permissions From: Alessio Bernesco Lāvore (alessio.bernesco <email protected>)

I think you could not use fopen to open just a directory, without specify a
file.

Instead try to use:

$handle=opendir('mydir');
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
    echo "$file\n";
}
closedir($handle);

Bye,

Alessio
