'Filer' Helper help.

[eluser]visua[/eluser]
Hey guys, I am trying to get a list of files and folders using the file helper.

Here is my app 'structure'

controllers/
/admin
dashboard.php
/blog
post.php
config.php
/pages
page.php
manage.php

I want to return this in an array format, so I can dynamically build my admin menu.

I tried;

$menu = get_dir_file_info('./admin');

and echoing that out just echos the word 'Array'.

Any help? Thanks.

That's because you can't just echo the contents of an array. If you want to view the array contents use the following piece of code :

Code:

print_r($menu); // Prints the array structure.
