$homedir needs to be the full system path, not a URL. Something like this should work:
$homedir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clnt_images/';

Hi guys,
I have to write a PHP maintenance program for trimming a website database (MySql). The page will have an input field for a master record number, after validation it then will delete records in a transaction file together with an image stored in another sub-directory. The image name is obtained from the record that is deleted.
Amongst others, I have tried doing the following: $homedir = "http://www.mysite.com/clnt_images/";; $images= $recimage; /* image id is obtained from record */ $userfile= $homedir.$images; unlink ("$userfile");
The error message I get is: Warning: unlink(http://www.mysite.com/clnt_images/tel.gif) [function.unlink]: Invalid argument
It needs to work on a Win server as well as Linux.
