It just returns a string. The output should tell you why it's failing.
In Example
1, neither of those exist in the current directory, and things that
don't exist
are naturally not directories.

Description:
------------
Using scandir() to fetch a list of folders/files in a folder. When I use
foreach() and is_dir() to filter out folders from files, folders and
files are being grouped together, almost like PHP thinks the folders are
files. However if we use "." as the argument in the scandir() method, we
get the desired results.
The below test script assumes you've created the following
folders/files:
folderName/
folderName/testFolder1/
folderName/testFolder2/
folderName/testFile1
folderName/testFile2
These results occur using both the CLI and via a PHP page in the
browser.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
// Example 1
$scan = scandir("folderName");
foreach ($scan as $file)
{
if (is_dir($file))
{
echo "Folder: ".$file."\n";
}
else
{
echo "File: ".$file."\n";
}
}
?>
<?php
// Example 2
$scan = scandir(".");
foreach ($scan as $file)
{
if (is_dir($file))
{
echo "Folder: ".$file."\n";
}
else
{
echo "File: ".$file."\n";
}
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Example 2 gives the expected result:
Folder: .
Folder: ..
File: testFile1
File: testFile2
Folder: testFolder1
Folder: testFolder2
Actual result:
--------------
Example 1 gives the actual result:
Folder: .
Folder: ..
File: testFile1
File: testFile2
File: testFolder1
File: testFolder2
