Dynamic PHP Menu - Tutorial

    I decided to make a dynamic menu. The menu will be created based on a folder with the pages for your website. If the folder contains Downloads(.php), About(.php) etc. the page will list them. Now I thought, let's share the script, and describe some functions :)

    <html>
<head>

<style>
      table.menu {position:absolute;left:25;top:450;color:yellow}
      a {text-decoration:none;color:white;font-family:verdana;font-size:9}
      iframe.body {position:absolute;left:275;top:300;color:yellow}
</style>

</head>

<body bgcolor = "#888888">

<table border = 1 class = "menu" bgcolor = "#800000">
      <tr height = "350">
        <td width = "175">


<?php
$handle=opendir('./menu'); //select the directory where your menu files will be
while (false!==($file = readdir($handle))) {
   if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && substr($file, -4) == ".php") { // change .php in the extension you use

       do
       {

   $file2 = substr_replace ($file, '', -4); // if your extension (with the dot) is longer then 4, edit this
   echo "<a href = \"menu/$file\" target = \"links\">$file2</a>"; //The link, based on the file
   echo '<br>'; // start a new line

       } while ($file != 0);

   }

}
closedir($handle); //close the menu directory
?>
        </td>
      </tr>
</table>

<iframe name = "links" src = "about:blank" class = "body" width = "900" height = "500" marginwidth = "0" marginheight = "0">It seems your browser doesn't show frames!</iframe>

</body>
</html>
    PHP:
    In this tutorial I used an iframe and a menu, but this aint needed! Almost every layout will work.

    Maybe the scripts seems not really easy, but hey trust me: it is easy to edit. It's commented :)
    If there are any questions about this script, say it here, or pm me.

    Have fun with it :)
