How can PHP be used to create a file browser on a school website for accessing and downloading files from a Windows Server?

To create a file browser on a school website for accessing and downloading files from a Windows Server, you can use PHP to list the files in a directory and provide download links for each file. This can be achieved by using PHP's directory functions to scan the directory on the server, then displaying the files as links that users can click to download. 

<?php
$dir = "path/to/your/files/directory";

if (is_dir($dir)) {
    if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
        while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
            if ($file != '.' && $file != '..') {
                echo "<a href='$dir/$file' download>$file</a><br>";
            }
        }
        closedir($dh);
    }
}
?>
