how to move content of folder

[laura2k]

hi,

i have a folder that is constantly updated with content, I need to create a script that will move the entire content of that folder (not the folder, just the files in it) to another destination folder. I just cannot seem to find a function in php to deal with the moving of files within the server itself.

thanx in advance

I didn't test this at all so be warned but it just might work

<? 
$mydir = "/path/to/dir/"; 
$destdir = "/path/to/new/dir/"; 
$d = dir [ca.php.net]($mydir); 
while($entry = $d->read()) { 
 if ($entry!= "." && $entry!= "..") { 
 $oldpath = $mydir . $entry; 
 $newpath = $destdir . $entry; 
 $success = copy [ca.php.net]($oldpath,$newpath); 
 if ($success) unlink($oldpath); 
 else die("There was an error copying $oldpath"); 
 } 
} 
$d->close(); 
?>
