Detecting hidden files/folders in Windows?

Post by Jeremified »

I know that Unix-style directories just use a full stop before a file to make them hidden, but obviously it's not that easy to detect in Windows. Does PHP have a function that can tell me if a file or folder is hidden by Windows Explorer's standards?
