Re: [PHP] Delete files via PHP
Hi, that's a negative They say that after uploading the file, the temp file on the tmp directory (usual) is deleted, anyway in order to confirm the deletion we should use unlink() function. Reading from one of the books, they say that the temp files are not deleted if a misconfiguration is found on php.ini or if the directory permissions aren't set as they should be.

[PHP] Delete files via PHP
Hi guys, I made a upload file's script and it works fine. No, I wanna create a page where it will display the directory content and will let me delete any file standing there. Is there any way to use php for that? Where can I get info about it? BTW, I have PHP/MySQL working on a Linux system Thx in advance Miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Delete files via PHP
Read the manual first. If you can't find it, search the net (google is a great place to start). If you still can't find it, _then_ ask on the list. I had no idea how to do this, but it took me 30 sec to find out, and I'm a newbie. http://no.php.net/manual/en/function.unlink.php vennlig hilsen Øyvind On Fri, 31 Jan 2003, Miguel Brás wrote: Hi guys, I made a upload file's script and it works fine.
