Copy one file to all folders in a folder?

Is it possible / easy to copy a file from one place (say index.php in /mypage/homes/) to folders in another folder (for example, in friends there might be pfox, sam, uni) using PHP? So the file index.php would be copied to friends/pfox, friends/uni and so on?

To be obvious, the file structure is as so:

update.php (The file you have to write) 
mypage 
|_homes
      |_index.php 
friends 
|_pfox <--Copy index.php to here! 
|_sam  <--And here! 
|_uni  <--And here!

Might be something like this

foreach (new DirectoryIterator('./friends') as $fileInfo) {
    if($fileInfo->isDir()) {
         copy('./mypage/homes/index.php', $fileInfo->getPathname() . '/index.php');
    }
}

You might add code to test if copy failed.

Edit: Use getPathname instead of getPath .

Something like http://php.net/manual/en/function.copy.php maybe?

The sintax is very simple

copy($file_path, $destination_path);
