Hi Jas,
if I understood your question right, you can solve your problem best with
something like the following:
<?php
$i=0; // counter
$files = array(); // array to store directory content
// open directory
$dir = opendir("PATH_TO_DIR");
// loop through directory and put filenames into an array
while ($file = readdir($dir)) {
$files[$i] = $file;
$i++;
}
// close directory
closedir($dir);
// now do something reasonable with your array
?>
