Will this do?

<?php
$dir_name = "/path/to/images/directory/";
$dir = opendir($dir_name);
$file_list .= "<SELECT NAME=\"files\">";
 while ($file_name = readdir($dir)) {
  if (($file_name != ".") && ($file_name !="..")) {
  $file_list .= "<OPTION VALUE=\"$file_name\"
NAME=\"$file_name\">$file_name</OPTION>";
  }
 }
 $file_list .= "</SELECT><br><br><INPUT TYPE=\"submit\" NAME=\"submit\"
VALUE=\"select\"></FORM></p>";
 closedir($dir);

$new_file_list .= $file_list . "<p><FORM METHOD=\"post\" 
ACTION=\"$file_name.php3\">

?>
