All,
I'm trying to figure out the logic piece, and I'm pretty sure I am missing
something simple.
I have a script that I want to check all files in a directory for information,
if it doesn't find it when all done, I want it to go elsewhere, however if it
does find it, I want it to break out of the search and perform a function.

based off your logic, I think I fixed your problem.
don't forget about http://us3.php.net/break
// Get a directory resource handler
if ($handle = opendir('./bp_csv/')) {
// Looping...
while ( $file = readdir($handle) ) {
// This checks to see if it is a file. Not a symlink, dir,
socket, etc...
// Your is_dir() test would have failed if it had come across a
socket
if ( is_file($file) ) {
// Mind you that I have not used the escapeshell***()
commands
// that much. You might need to drop the
escapeshellcmd(), since
// you are creating the command inline, and you have
already escaped
// the input data with escapeshellarg()
// Be sure to validate input
$user = escapeshellarg(@$_POST[userid]);
// Be sure to escape the command also
$command = escapeshellcmd("grep \"{$user}\"
./bp_csv/{$file}");
// Run command and capture results
$userinfo = exec($command);
// Check to see if I got any results
// Might want to do a little better result checking.
// This would pass even if the command failes and hands
back an error
if ( ! empty($userinfo) ) {
// ok, found the person, run the function
userprofile($userinfo);
// Exit while loop
break;
}
}
}
}
// Nothing was returned for any of the files that we found.
if ( empty($userinfo) ) {
echo "$user not found in any BP_CSV files, now running LDAP check<BR>";
ldap_check($user);
}
