Have a look here http://bizba6.com/allfiles.php

and all the files, immediately after they're named, don't exist ;)

here's the complete code (not mine, since I don't know what I'm doing here)

<?php
function getDirectory( $path = '.', $level = 0 ){
    $ignore = array( 'cgi-bin', '.', '..' );
    // Directories to ignore when listing output. Many hosts
    // will deny PHP access to the cgi-bin.
    $dh = @opendir( $path );
    // Open the directory to the handle $dh
    while( false !== ( $file = readdir( $dh ) ) ){
    // Loop through the directory
        if( !in_array( $file, $ignore ) ){
        // Check that this file is not to be ignored
            $spaces = str_repeat( '&nbsp;', ( $level * 4 ) );
            // Just to add spacing to the list, to better
            // show the directory tree.
            if( is_dir( "$path/$file" ) ){
            // Its a directory, so we need to keep reading down...
                echo "<strong>$spaces $file</strong><br />";
                getDirectory( "$path/$file", ($level+1) );
                // Re-call this same function but on a new directory.
                // this is what makes function recursive.
            } else {
                //
                // here's where it dies
                //
                 $filesize = filesize($path/$file);
               echo "$spaces $file,";
echo ($filesize)? $filesize.'Kb' : "File doesn't exist<br />";
            }
        }
    }
    closedir( $dh );
    // Close the directory handle
}
getdirectory('.');
?>
