Everything you need can be found on PHP.net.

is_file()
is_dir()
[FONT=courier new]opendir()[/FONT]

// open the current directory
$dhandle =  opendir( "./");
// define an array to hold the files
$files = array();

if ($dhandle) {
   // loop through all of the files
   while (false !== ($fname = readdir($dhandle))) {
      // if the file is not this file, and does not start with a '.' or '..',
      // then store it for later display
      if (($fname != '.') && ($fname != '..') &&
          ($fname != basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']))) {
          // store the filename
          $files[] = (is_dir( "./$fname" )) ? "(Dir) {$fname}" : $fname;
      }
   }
   // close the directory
   closedir($dhandle);
}

this code retrive foldernames too. what wrong in it .i want to display the files name only

The following line is why everything is been included in the $files array.

$files[] = (is_dir( "./$fname" )) ? "(Dir) {$fname}" : $fname;

To retrieve only files the following will work

if (is_file($fname)) {
    $files[] = $fname;
}

i tried to delete the file using unlink command but it is not work. is it we have to pass extension in it. its extension is file .

No, the while loop contains the filename + the extension so no further logic is needed, my question to you is have you checked your error log as if unlink() is failing it’s most likely due to a permissions error.
