CODE:

/**
 * List files and folders inside a directory into a deep array.
 *
 * @param string $Path
 * @return array/null
 */
function EnumFiles($Path){
    // Validate argument
    if(!is_string($Path) or !strlen($Path = trim($Path))){
        trigger_error('$Path must be a non-empty trimmed string.', E_USER_WARNING);
        return null;
    }
    // If we get a file as argument, resolve its folder
    if(!is_dir($Path) and is_file($Path)){
        $Path = dirname($Path);
    }
    // Validate folder-ness
    if(!is_dir($Path) or !($Path = realpath($Path))){
        trigger_error('$Path must be an existing directory.', E_USER_WARNING);
        return null;
    }
    // Store initial Path for relative Paths (second argument is reserved)
    $RootPath = (func_num_args() > 1) ? func_get_arg(1) : $Path;
    $RootPathLen = strlen($RootPath);
    // Prepare the array of files
    $Files = array();
    $Iterator = new DirectoryIterator($Path);
    foreach($Iterator as /** @var \SplFileInfo */ $File){
        if($File->isDot()) continue; // Skip . and ..
        if($File->isLink() or (!$File->isDir() and !$File->isFile())) continue; // Skip links & other stuff
        $FilePath = $File->getPathname();
        $RelativePath = str_replace('\\', '/', substr($FilePath, $RootPathLen));
        $Files[$RelativePath] = $FilePath; // Files are string
        if(!$File->isDir()) continue;
        // Calls itself recursively [regardless of name :)]
        $SubFiles = call_user_func(__FUNCTION__, $FilePath, $RootPath);
        $Files[$RelativePath] = $SubFiles; // Folders are arrays
    }
    return $Files; // Return the tree
}

Test its output and figure it out :) You can do it!

RecursiveDirectoryIterator scans recursively into a flat structure. To create a deep structure you need a recursive function (calls itself) using DirectoryIterator. And if your current file isDir() and !isDot() go deep on it by calling the function again with the new directory as arguments. And append the new array to your current set.

If you can't handle this holler and I'll dump some code here. Have to document (has ninja comments right now) it a bit so... trying my luck the lazy way, with instructions.
