You asked for the whole script, as to what may be wrong ?

Your script makes no sense and is full of errors. No idea what you want to achieve. Shrug. Try to talk about your goals.

Maybe, just maybe... You read up the syntax of
The second parameter is the variable name of the list to map the array to.
Does it make sense to use $i (the iterator) here?...
Why is "||" used as the separator, you aren't even assigning $gPath to the array but a single folder name, etc. etc. etc.
implode()?The second parameter is the variable name of the list to map the array to.

I wanted to as you mentioned here; viewtopic.php?p=216791#p216791 to append a variable to an array. Therefore I append each iteration to the the array and that is $pArray[$i]=$iten then using implode I want to show the array as this function does and that is what I want to do. When implode() function was not just returning the array but also the function itself I wanted to know what I'm doing wrong.highend wrote: ↑27 Dec 2023 20:37 Maybe, just maybe...

$gPath is just to go to that file path, it works as I want; the || is to separate each item in the array so I can see the file paths there is no connection because realpath() doesn't ask for any other arguments as you mention any separators.

I think I may know where the problem lies; although I do have another question the native variable <allitems> returns all the sub-folders for a selected folder in my case, except; how can I get just the folder omitting the path ?

You see garbage (and not the content of the array) because the implode() line is missing the trailing semicolon^^

I understand what your saying, including some of my mistakes. Although if one folder is selected and that folder contains sub-folders; I want to loop over those sub-folders ignoring any panes.highend wrote: ↑28 Dec 2023 08:06 Turn on Menu - Scripting - [x] Syntax Checking

I have a question why this line of code; the forth argument is suppose to show only the folders yet it is showing me whatever files I have as well ?

No info about what $ccPath contains or the output of implode() looks like...
Educated guess: No ","-delimited entries in the array => Hence not a correct index access...

$i=0; is initialized outside of the forEach loop, within the forEach I have $i+=1 and $ccPath does show the list of folders when returned then why since I'm assigning $ccPath to the array can I not just access one of the file paths using an Array index ?
You mentioned in a previous post how to use arrays in XY, it read straight forward but it's not indexing.
Code: Select all
$ccPath = listfolder($iten,*,2,||);
$pArray[$i] = $ccPath;
}
