PHP List Directories Recursively Issue -

i'm trying list php files in specified directory , recursively check sub-directories until finds no more, there numerous levels.

the function have below works fine exception recurses down 1 level.

i've spent hours trying see i'm going wrong, i'm calling scanfiles() when finds new directory seems work 1 level down , stop, appreciated.

updated:

function scanfiles($pparentdirectory) {     $vfilearray = scandir($pparentdirectory);     $vdirectories = array();      foreach ($vfilearray $vkey => $vvalue)     {         if (!in_array($vvalue, array('.', '..')) && (strpos($vvalue, '.php') || is_dir($vvalue)))         {             if (!is_dir($vvalue))                 $vdirectories[] = $vvalue;             else             {                 $vdirectory = $vvalue;                 $vsubfiles = scanfiles($vdirectory);                 foreach ($vsubfiles $vkey => $vvalue)                         $vdirectories[] = $vdirectory.directory_separator.$vvalue;             }         }     }      return $vdirectories; } 

you can this:

// helper function function getfiles(&$files, $dir) {     $items = glob($dir . "/*");     foreach ($items $item) {          if (is_dir($item)) {             getfiles($files, $item);         } else {             if (end(explode('.', $item)) == 'php') {                 $files[] = basename($item);             }         }     } }  // usage $files = array(); getfiles($files, "mydir");  // debug var_dump($files); 

mydir looks this: has php files in dirs

output:

---

p.s. if want function return full path found .php files, remove basename() line:

$files[] = basename($item); 

this produce result this:

hope helps.
