PERL to PHP translator needed

i'm an old school PERL programmer and still write a lot of code in PERL and C. however, i'm expanding my horizons and starting to write a significant amout of stuff in PHP as well.

i find myself running into a lot of situations where i'm like "this is how i would do it in PERL, how do you do it in PHP?"

example: how do i do this in PHP?

Code:

---

if (-d /home/whatever) {  ... }

---

in any case, i was wondering if there was a good site out there that has a lot of PERL to PHP translations.

something similar to this site, but in more detail:

http://www.cs.wcupa.edu/~rkline/perl2php/


thanks :)

that "-d" checks if the /home/whatever is a file or a directory

you can use is_file or is_dir to chech that before actually doing the if-stuff

example

if (is_dir($path)) {
echo "Is Directory\n";
}

if (is_file($path)) {
echo "Is File\n";
}
