List all files in a directory ,extra information is coming

Question

here my code-

if ($handle = opendir(\'banner/\')) {    
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 
        echo \"$file\"; 
    }     
    closedir($han         


        

Answer 1

Because . is the current directory and .. is the parent directory.

They are always exists.

If you need to exclude them - just add

if ($file != '.' && $file != '..')

right before echo
