استفاده از تابع ‎dir()‎‎:

<?php 
$d = dir(getcwd()‎);

echo "Handle: " . $d->handle . "<br>";
echo "Path: " . $d->path . "<br>";

while (($file = $d->read()‎) !== false){ 
  echo "filename: " . $file . "<br>"; 
} 
$d->close()‎; 
?>

خروجی:

Handle: Resource id #2
Path: /etc/php
filename: .
filename: ..
filename: ajax.gif
filename: books.xml
filename: cdcatalog.xml
filename: cd_catalog.xml
filename: default.asp
