Re: [PHP] File creation date.
From: Carles Xavier Munyoz Baldó [EMAIL PROTECTED] I want to write a PHP function for delete the files in a directory older than 1800 seconds. Is there any function for it ?

Not directly. I wouldn't build this into a web script, either (though if you're simply planning to write your system script in php that's fine). I'd run it with cron (say every 20 minutes) no matter what language I used to write it. % % If not ... % How may I obtain the creation date of a file in PHP ?

Re: [PHP] file creation date
How would you know about a file on someone's system before it was implicitly sent you by user? Take a look at JavaScript, but I doubt there will be a sure solution for it. Nothing is sure with JavaScript except for it's cross-browser incompatibility :) -- Maxim Maletsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] Research and Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote... : Is it possible to get the creation date of a file that is going to be uploaded?

RE: [PHP] file creation date
Is it possible to get the creation date of a file that is going to be uploaded? I saw a function that returns the file creation date once on the server, but is it possible to get that information from a file that is not yet on the server? Not with PHP. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
