Is there a linux command for getting only the files in a folder and inside its subfolders? I have used the find command, but it is displaying all the files and folders. I am executing this shell command using the php exec() function.

You should use the -type f option to get only files.

find /path_to_find -type f

    @THOmas: read the man page & search, this is very frequently asked (and answered)

    @THOmas: man find. You can use -mtime, or you can use touch to create a file with the time 20110820 and use -newer.
