Tried this code to retrieve the newest files from a server using php/ ssh2. The problem is that it only downloads one file instead of multiple files. Any help would be appreciated .

a way to download the latest files using PHP through SFTP (SSH2)

#!/usr/bin/php

<?php
$username = "username";
$password = "passwor";
$url      = 'adress';
// Make our connection
$connection = ssh2_connect($url);
 
// Authenticate
if (!ssh2_auth_password($connection, $username, $password))
	 {echo('Unable to connect.');}
 
// Create our SFTP resource
if (!$sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection))
     {echo ('Unable to create SFTP connection.');}


$localDir  = 'file:///home/xxx/Downloads/newfile';
$remoteDir = '/home/xxx/Dropbox/dbs';
// download all the files
$dir = ('ssh2.sftp://' . $sftp . $remoteDir);
$numberOfFiles = 2;
$pattern = '/\.(aes|AES)$/'; // check only file with these ext.          
$newstamp = 2;            
$newname = "";


if ($handle = opendir($dir)) {               
       while (false !== ($fname = readdir($handle)))  {            
         // Eliminate current directory, parent directory            
         if (preg_match('/^\.{1,2}$/',$fname)) continue;            
         // Eliminate other pages not in pattern            
         if (! preg_match($pattern,$fname)) continue;            
         $timedat = filemtime("$dir/$fname");
         $fils[$fname] = $timedat;            
         if ($timedat > $newstamp) {
            $newstamp = $timedat;
            $newname = $fname;
          }
         }
        }
closedir ($handle);

arsort ($fils, SORT_NUMERIC);
sfor($i = 0; $i < $numberOfFiles ; $i++)
$fils2 = array_keys($fils);
$i = 0;
foreach($fils2 as $s){
	$i++;
	echo "$i " . $s . "<br>\n";
	if($i == $numberOfFiles )break;
}
// $newstamp is the time for the latest file
// $newname is the name of the latest file
// print last mod.file - format date as you like            
    	
$rttp = ssh2_scp_recv($connection, "$remoteDir/$newname", "$localDir/$newname")
