    <p>I have a news overview page, and a folder of php files I would like to individually include. Rather than manually including each one into my overview page, I thought I would use php to scan the folder for php files, and print them out as an include statement.</p> <p>I have the following code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $articles = glob("/assets/news/form/*.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php if(count($articles)) { natcasesort($articles); foreach($articles as $article) { ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/$article"); ?&gt; &lt;?php }} else { echo "Sorry, no articles to display!"; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I get no syntax with this, but I do not receive any output. Just a blank space where the articles should be.</p> <p>The output I am wanting is something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/1.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/2.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/3.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/4.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/5.php"); ?&gt; &lt;?php include("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/assets/news/overview/6.php"); ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Ultimately I am wanting to write a php function that scans a folder in <code>ROOT/assets/news/form/</code> for all php files, and include all the files with the same name from the folder <code>ROOT/assets/news/overview</code>.</p> <p>My news overview page is currently in <code>/news/index.php</code></p> <p>Can anyone help me out with this?</p>

    1. CO"I thought I would use php to scan the folder for php files, and print them out as an include statement" - this is fine until you get an unwanted PHP file in your dir, then you would automatically include it. I would stick with manual includes or at least limit them to ones you know are good.

    3. COhave you considered using a db, if these 'news' files are just text\html

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
