**PHP Explorer** is the eclipse PDT tab (the leftmost in standard configuration) where you can browse the folders of your project. I believe the same tab in standard eclipse is called "Project Explorer" but I am not sure.

What happens to me is that when I close and reopen eclipse, although the files that were open at close time are still open on relaunch of eclipse, all **my folder hierarchy in PHP Explorer (where I had various folders open at close time) is displayed collapsed**.

Is there away to tell eclipse to reopen all my folders the way they were at close time?

Thank you in advance for your time!
