Sort (date & size) listing of dir.

[Peuplarchie]

Good day to you all,
I'm building a little image directory viewer and I want it to list the images by date they were uploaded and within that by landscape or portrait.

I would need newest on top.


Here is the code I have so far :

<?php

$val= $_GET['folder'];
$val.="/";




$imgdir = $val; // the directory, where your images are stored
$allowed_types = array('png','jpg','jpeg','gif'); // list of filetypes you want to show

$dimg = opendir($imgdir);
while($imgfile = readdir($dimg))
{
 if(in_array(strtolower(substr($imgfile,-3)),$allowed_types))
 {
  $a_img[] = $imgfile;
  sort($a_img);
  reset ($a_img);
 } 
}

$totimg = count($a_img); // total image number
 
for($x=0; $x < $totimg; $x++)
{
 $size = getimagesize($imgdir.'/'.$a_img[$x]);


 
echo "<tr><td>";
if ($size[0] > "199"){

 echo '<img src="'.$imgdir.'/'.$a_img[$x].'" width="50" border="0">';
}
echo "</td</tr>";
 
 
echo "<tr><td>";
if ($size[1] > "199"){

 echo '<img src="'.$imgdir.'/'.$a_img[$x].'" width="50" border="0">';
}
echo "</td></tr>";
}
?>

Can someone guide me with this please ?

Thanks !
Have a nice day !

if this is on a Linux box you could use a command like

$results = `ls -ltr`;
echo $results;

might be best to give the full path like this
$results = `/path/to/dir/ls -lrt`;

these are backticks ` not single quotes '
