PHP Unable To List Files From URL Directory

Question

I am attempting to get a list of css files from a directory into a Wordpress Template. I am a trying to make the code below work with no luck. What am I doing wrong?

$path = parse_url(TC_BASE_URL . 'custom/css/', PHP_URL_PATH);
$dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $path;
$dir = str_replace("/", "\\",$dir);
$dir = str_replace("\\\\", "\\",$dir);
if (is_dir($dir)) {
    if ($dh == opendir($dir)) {
        while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
            echo "filename: $file : filetype: " . filetype($dir . $file) . "\n";
        }
        closedir($dh);
    } else {
        echo $dir . ' Is Not Open';
    }
} else {
    echo $dir . ' Is Not A Directory';
}

It's funny....i recreate your same directory structure and the code just works fine — Hackerman, Feb 17 '14 at 20:31
Might be a permission issue but I don't know why that would be Thanks — Talon06, Feb 17 '14 at 20:51
I post a sample test....OS Windows 7, admin account...are you sure that if you paste C:\www\wp-content\themes\custom\custom\css\ in your filexplorer the dir really exist?? — Hackerman, Feb 17 '14 at 20:54
Yes if I paste it into the file explorer it opens just fine. — Talon06, Feb 17 '14 at 21:07
By the look at your path, you have a Windows based OS...did you install apache+php+mysql all by yourself or are you using a wamp stack? — Hackerman, Feb 17 '14 at 21:09
This was a server I inherited, I believe they were installed separately. — Talon06, Feb 17 '14 at 21:15
Then maybe is a perms issue...just check that the apache user has the rights permissions over that folder — Hackerman, Feb 17 '14 at 21:17
I guess I should point out that this server uses IIS7 sorry forgot that. — Talon06, Feb 17 '14 at 21:30

I made the following test:

<?php
    $ruta = "C:\\www\\wp-content\\themes\\custom\\custom\\css\\";

    if (is_dir($ruta)) {
        if ($dh = opendir($ruta)) {
            while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
                echo "file name: $file : file type: " . filetype($ruta . $file) . "</br>";
            }
            closedir($dh);
        }
    }

?>

The output:

file name: . : file type: dir
file name: .. : file type: dir
file name: Nuevo Documento de Microsoft Word.docx : file type: file
file name: Nuevo KuaiZip ZIP Archive file.zip : file type: file

Found my problem was using a == to compare $dh not set it with a single = — Talon06, Feb 18 '14 at 16:13
