Code: Select all

$dir = "images/";
$handle = opendir($dir);

while (($file = readdir($handle)))
{
     if (($file!=".")&&($file!="..")&&($file!="thumbs.db"))   
     {
         echo "$file";
         if (!file_exists($file))
         {
            echo "Error: could not find file: $file.";
            exit();
         }
      .......
      }
.....//some other buggy code
}
