Of course, this could be simplified *slightly* by actually taking
advantage of the loose typing of PHP - change the above if statement
to:
if (($pos = strpos($file, '.')))
{
$restOfAboveCodeHere;
}
This way, if the file is the '.' or '..' files, then you will get a 0
for the position of the '.', which will evaluate to FALSE. All other
files will return a non-zero position of the '.' char, which will
evaluate to TRUE. Also, I would believe (but have no evidence at all
of) that a forward-looking string position search will be very
slightly faster than a strrchr search - dunno for certain, and don't
care enough to code up a couple-line test, but just my gut... ;)
