    PCmover - $15 Off with Coupon Code CJPH7Q

    A fairly simple script to list all directories and files in a base directory. Then allows users to navigate through the directories and sub-directories.

    You can find more scripts on my site here

    Featuring a fairly simple permission mode, you can set if the user can navigate above a given directory. You can also disable the whole script by changing $allow_access to 0.

    Note: Requires 2 images of your choice (A directory image and file image)

    NEW! Spot defects early with Continuous Integration

    Continuous Integration (or CI) is a process that consists of continuously compiling, testing, inspecting, and deploying source code. In many Continuous Integration environments, this means running a new build anytime code within a source code management repository changes. The benefit of CI is simple: assembling software often greatly increases the likelihood that you will spot defects early, when they still are relatively manageable. In this tutorial, a companion to his series In pursuit of code quality, Andrew Glover introduces the fundamental aspects of Continuous Integration and steps you through how to set up a CI process using best-of-breed open source technologies.
