Displaying directory contents in an appealing manner.

Post by Quietactioninc »

Hello!

I am creating a component that is made for "book viewing".
It requires the directory in which the images (For example, if its a magazine, so all text docs will be converted to JPEGS) are located.

However, I want it to give the very top directory (ex: Books).
From there, I would like to display all of the folders, which are going to be books, in the browser in a nice visual manner.
Furthermore, once they click on the book, they would enter another page of the exact same thing, except the folders within that folder (chapters).

After that, they go to a page with the book reader.

What sort of coding am I to use? PHP, HTML-wise, etc.
