Just how does one use a database to play music with?
"Data" means information. It is not the file itself.

The array I am creating is a prelude to using the database.
Ergo, the crazy numbering scheme for the file names.
Each file name will correspond to the songID in the database.
That in turn, fetches the required information I want to display.
e.g. Track title, artist, year and rank.
Whereas I could just as easily use the basic information for file names, I
have found out that only ivites spiders and crawlers to take advantage and
identify who has that song.
I have checked my stats for links and found one guy who was directly
linking onto his site so his visitors could freely download.
I pointe out to him that was not only illegal, but as I had to pay a fee to
legally broadcast, I could sue him if it came to that.
As could BMI and ASCAP sue him.
He got the message and no longer links.
Since bots don't know what the numbers mean, it is useless information to
them.

As for the code, here is what I have so far.


$hi=0;

for ($i = 59; $i <= 69; $i++) {
$yr="19$i";

$dir='../audio/'.$yr.'/';
$files = scandir($dir);
$number=count($files);
sort($files);
$hi=$hi+$number;

foreach ($files as $file)
if ($file !=="." && $file !=="..")
$master[] = $file;
}
echo $hi;
echo "<br>";

sort($master);
for ($x=0;$x<=$hi;$x++){echo $x.")..".$master[$x]."<br>";}
