changing the second parameter in directory_map to an integer that controls recursion depth.
A depth of 0 is fully recursive to maintain backward compatibility with the boolean values.

+<p>Sub-folders contained within the directory will be mapped as well. If you wish to control the recursion depth,

-<code>$map = directory_map('./mydirectory/', TRUE);</code>
