Need help with PHP wildcards or regular expressions
Posted: Fri Sep 17, 2010 3:27 pm
Okay, I have a problem. I need to display multilple output of a file with a similar file name
I.E.
file1: 6002010.pdf
file2: 6002010.mmddyyyy.pdf
Now the first part of the file stays the same, but there is a time stamp on modified versions of the file. But in my output I need to display all the files with the 6002010.
Could I use a wildcard such as 6002010* to get all the files to output on the screen? Or do I need to use a regular expression? GLOB maybe?
