Topic awaiting preservation: site maps - regular expressions - counting slashes (Page 1 of 1)

how can I divide/sort a php array in to multiple new arrays? there are some conditions to this so I will explain my situation:

I have a php script that recursively loops through all my website directories and gets all the htm/html/php files from them and put's them into an array as an absolute path. I would like to turn this array into some kind of file tree or easy to understand sitemap. I figure the array entries would need to be divided and sorted into a range of nested arrays or something and the sitemap made from that.
*My current locally tested array looks like :

[0] => c:\phpdev\www\ckg\splash.htm
[1] => c:\phpdev\www\ckg\index.htm
[2] => c:\phpdev\www\ckg\ckg\index.htm
[3] => c:\phpdev\www\ckg\ckg\thanks\index.htm

Alternatively rather than make one array and then break it up into sub arrays is there a way that the following script can be made to put data into the nested arrays directly (each time it reads a sub directory in a directory create a new sub array etc.)? I basically want to run this script via a cron job every few days and create a seperate html sitemap file that is clear and understandable.<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT face="Verdana, Arial">code:</font><HR><pre><?php
$root_path = ".";
function parseDir($path)
{
if (!($dir_handler = opendir($path))) {
die("Can't opendir() path '". $path ."'");
}
$files = array();
while (($file = readdir($dir_handler)) !== false) {
$temp_path = realpath($path."/".$file);
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
if (is_dir($temp_path)) {
$files = array_merge($files, parseDir($temp_path));
} elseif (is_file($temp_path)) {
$pathInfo = pathinfo($temp_path);
if (preg_match("/(html?

again, without reading all of your posts,
you can easily nest arrays.

just say
$shu = array(array(1,2),array(3,4))
then you can do things like
$shu[0][1] = 5;
or even $shu[0][] = 6;

You can use variable variables also, I suppose.

[code]

$dir = "/test/";

$dir = str_replace("/","",$dir);

$$dir[0] = "index.php";

echo $test[0]; //outputs "index.php" <--- Not tested, but I think that's how variable variables work.
