I am working on a directory which has mp3 files in it. Directory name is outgoing_folder and it has mp3 files in it.

Here is the php code:

$audio_mp3 = outgoing_folder;
scandir($audio_mp3);
print_r(scandir($audio_mp3));  // Added Line#A for debugging purpose

Line#A prints the following:

Array ( [0] => . [1] => .. [2] => 36017P.mp3 [3] => 36031P.mp3 [4] => hello.mp3 )

The following html/php code output this 36017P.mp3

<td style="width:8%;text-align:center;"><?php echo $mp3_files[2];?></td>

Problem Statememnt:

I am wondering what changes I need to make in the php/html code above so that it print the name of all mp3 files. At this moment, it is printing the name of only particular file.

What do you mean by "prints the name of all mp3 files" because your function is just doing that? Or maybe you're looking to print the file's full path instead? – tcj May 14 '19 at 18:42
No, this is printing `` only `36017P.mp3`. I am wondering what changes I should do in the php so that it print `36017P.mp3` `36031P.mp3` `hello.mp3` – flash May 14 '19 at 18:44

You could try this Wrap the html in a loop – Elena Roman May 14 '19 at 18:46
@ElenaRoman why did you use curly braces at the last ? – flash May 14 '19 at 18:51
