Its all connected, had you searched the SEs first,
your would have found file_exists(), then if you read
that functions page at php.net you would have seen
readdir() which is another way of doing exactly what
you want..

eg:
readdir, if the directory is populated you can then
check the extention (eg: .com, php, xls or whatever)

All I am saying is, try to use the list as pretty much
your last resort..
