I am trying to take a list of directories in a folder and give them a variable name. I have this working with the exception that the shell_exec command wants to place a return. Here is my code which might explain better what I am trying to do:
I am not going to go into why I am trying to do this, but what ends up happening is the script tries to cat /var/www/sad/$week1 only because for some reason a return is held within the $week1 variable and it causes the script to treat /var/www/sad/$week1 and then $student1/$student1.html separately.
and I can't seem to figure out how to alleviate this problem.
I have tried:
Everything places a return at the end of the string I am asking for. Any help is greatly appreciated.
