PHP File Listing

About

Most PHP listing scripts are hideous monsters, producing overwrought HTML listings full of styles and preview systems. This script aims to keep things simple, providing a single table with only the information that would be included on a normal directory listing — name, filesize, mime type and mtime.

This script does provide some preview features, but they are all client-side, and implemented in JavaScript. This means they disable themselves gracefully where a client does not have JavaScript support. Previews also provide full back/forward ability using the history API in modern browsers.

Usage

Simply pop the file where you want and set the variables at the top of the file:

• WEBPATH — The path to use for the root of all links to files.
• DISKPATH — The location on disk of files to index
• BLACKLIST — A list of files not to list. By default merely excludes the up/here directory listings.
• DATEFORMAT — PHP-style date format used for mtime output.
• GALLERYTITLE — The title used for the gallery.
• BINARYSIZE — Boolean: true if you wish to use base 2 for filesize humanisation (KiB, MiB etc), false to use base 10.

I highly recommend integrating the script using css, and adding a header etc…
