How can one navigate to a specific directory in PHP before using the glob() function?

To navigate to a specific directory in PHP before using the glob() function, you can use the chdir() function to change the current working directory. This allows you to specify the directory path where you want to search for files using the glob() function. By changing the working directory before calling glob(), you ensure that the function searches for files in the correct location. 

<?php
// Specify the directory path to navigate to
$directory_path = '/path/to/directory';

// Change the current working directory to the specified directory
chdir($directory_path);

// Use the glob() function to search for files in the specified directory
$files = glob('*');

// Output the files found
print_r($files);
?>
