From the PHP manual:
$dir = new DirectoryIterator(dirname($path));
foreach ($dir as $fileinfo) {
if (!$fileinfo->isDot()) {
var_dump($fileinfo->getFilename());
}
}

<?php
$path = new DirectoryIterator('/articles');
foreach ($path as $file) {
echo $file->getFilename() . "\t";
echo $file->getSize() . "\t";
echo $file->getOwner() . "\t";
echo $file->getMTime() . "\n";
}
?>
From The Standard PHP Library (SPL)

Answer 5

It depends on what you mean by 'scan' I'm assuming you want to do something like this:
$dir_handle = opendir(".");
while($file = readdir($dir_handle)){
//do stuff with $file
}

Answer 6

try this
$dir = glob(dirname(__FILE__));
$directory = array_diff(scandir($dir[0]), array('..', '.'));
print_r($directory);

Scan current folder
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$x = $zip->open($filepath);
if ($x === true) {
$zip->extractTo($uploadPath); // place in the directory
$zip->close();
$fileArray = scandir($uploadPath);
unlink($filepath);
}
foreach ($fileArray as $file) {
if ('.' === $file || '..' === $file)
continue;
if (!is_dir("$file")){
//do stuff with $file
}
}
