This should do the trick:
// opening select tag goes here...
if ($handle = opendir('/path/to/files')) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
if ($file != '.' && $file != '..')
$fileName = str_replace('.mov', '', $file);
echo '<option value="' . $file . '">' . $fileName . '</option>';
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
// closing select tag goes here
Haven't tested it. Hope it works and helps ;)
