Simple function to list only sub directories within a directory

Newb here

I'm attempting to craft a simple function that will create a simple list of all the subdirectories available within a directory.

My code currently returns all the names of the subdirectories but it also returns all the names of the files in the directory which i do not want.

function getDirectories(){
    echo "Directories available:<br />";

    foreach (glob("*") as $dirname ) {
    echo "<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"$dirname \">$dirname</a><br />";}
    }

Use glob function with GLOB_ONLYDIR flag.

glob('*', GLOB_ONLYDIR);

Look over here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-dir.php

if( is_dir( $dirname ) ) {
    // Do stuff
}
