Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a simple script for counting subdirectories.

For example:

1. Input page is used to define the domain and the subdirectories starting and end point:

"Please enter the domain name: ______" example: www.yxz.com
"Please enter the starting point: ______" example: 0000000
"Please enter the end point : ______" example: 9999999

"Start counting"

2. Output page:

The script starts at "example: www.xyz.com" and looks if there is a web site running. It uses error 404 to check. Let's say there isn't a web site running, the webserver sends error 404. When no error 404 occurs, the URL "example: www.xyz.com" should be logged in a text file and a counter should be increased by one.
After checking all subdirectories from the starting to the end point a summary should be presented the user like:

Total subdirectories : 999'999 (endpoint minus starting point)
Active found subdirectories: 152'278

and the logfile should be downloadable by a link.


Thank you very much for helping me!

Sincerely,

Ives

Hi Leutenegger,

Since I am on 'transit' at the moment, I can't give you more details right now but I can tell you one function you can use to get a web page's status (i.e. 404).

Read up on : fsockopen()

Let us know how you get along with using it for your script
