File Genie PHP Rocks!

July 22, 2004 by Greg Olone

File Genie PHP is an excellent extension for anyone who wants to display a customized file directory listing in a browser! No more hand coding, and we were able to implement a secure file upload/download solution in under 10 minutes! Another awesome extension from the guys at DMXZone! Thanks George!

A useful addition to your toolkit

July 22, 2004 by Tim Green

If you're a PHP developer then you need to add this extension to your arsenal. File Genie PHP is perfect for Content Management systems where you want to give your clients access to specific files *without* the security risks associated with giving them access to the filesystem.

In minutes you'll be able to contruct pages that allow files and folders to be navigated, while at the same time being able to offer thumbnail images!

The applications for this extension are boundless, and as the code is all self-contained, it's a dream to use!

File Genie PHP is a welcome addition to my toolkit, and no doubt it will see plenty of use!
