Re: spaces in filenames

Hi,
I'm trying to write a script where I can get the names of files in a directory. Normally this is easy, like this: 

       for doc in `ls /var/www/htlml/files`
        do
		echo $i
 	done

However, some of the files have spaces in the names, like "My File.html"
How do I get $doc to have the correct file name?

Thanks
Sheldon.




for doc in /var/www/htlml/files/*;
do
	echo "$doc"
done
