Need some quick help on my short php script that shows images from a directory

I've got a basic PHP script (shown below) that simply displays all the images (jpegs) in the directory, in no particular order. I have this code in an 'index.php' file

My issue is now I'd like to sort the images in chronological order. I tried messing with the sort() code, but couldn't get it to work.

<?php
        $handle = opendir ('./');
        while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
            if($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != basename(__FILE__)) {
                echo '<img src="'.$file.'"/>';
            }
        }
?>

Code (markup):

Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

 

try http://php.net/glob

use it

foreach (glob("*.png") AS $image)
{
// do something with image
}

glob does not give you chronological idea. Use filemtime() as follows:

$last_modified = filemtime("thisfile.php");

This function returns time in Unix timestamp. Put into array and sort ascending order, then convert to date upon displaying it.
