You can use glob, then arsort to sort from high to low.

$files = glob("*"); //Fetch all files.
$files = array_combine($files, array_map("filemtime", $files)); //Grab the filetime for each file
arsort($files); //Sort high to low
echo "<pre>";
echo print_r($files, true);
echo "</pre>";

Output (after formatting in a table)

<?php

$files = glob("*"); //Fetch all files.
$files = array_combine($files, array_map("filemtime", $files));
arsort($files);
echo "<table>
       <tr>
         <th>File</th>
         <th>Last modified</th>";
foreach( $files as $file => $date ) {
    echo '<tr><td>'. $file .'</td><td>'. date("Y m d g:i:s a", $date).'</td></tr>';
}
echo "</table>";
