I have a folder of images, from 10 to 200, a webpage, a jquery fade and a php script that read folder full of images

Is there any way to make the php script scan a folder, get a list of image (in an array ?) and pass it to jquery script ? (first question)

Now, i can make a xml file from the result php list of files found or make a html <li> from the list in the html. is there ANY other way to do that ? (question #2)

To continue on from nickf's excellent answer, this is slightly more robust for images of different types.

$imagesDir = 'path/to/your/images/';

$images = glob($imagesDir . '*.{jpg,jpeg,png,gif}', GLOB_BRACE);



echo json_encode($images);

There are other ways of doing this, but this is the easiest. Note some file systems are case sensitive, so ensure the extension list is matching precisely what you're after.
