For an intranet application, we have some PDF files scanned in to a network folder from the scanner.
The path is consistent, and stored in a Parameter table, so easy to obtain.
What I want to do, which is easy, is to create linked database rows that refer to the scanned files - probably moving those that are linked as part of the process to a different folder path.
So:
I therefore need to be able to list files from a given folder as rows on the page.
Then users can "profile" them, by setting their type, expiry date and some other settings - click Save, and the file would be moved to the "profiled" folder, and a row in the Document table would be created.
So, any pointers on how to show the files in a folder? (I checked the BBs already and generally all the folder path/file items are concerned with showing file system items in preview etc).
And, if anyone can provide pointers to the PHP methods I should look at for moving file system objects around as I suggest, that would be most helpful too!
Thanks a lot.
