deleting files via forms

[pheagey]

O. I have a form that finds a file and lists all the files that match givin variables. What would I have to do to get my for the run unlink() to delete only the files that areselected vie a checkbox?
Any help is greatly appriciated.

When you create your form make the checkboxes name an array, like this:

<input type="checkbox" name="filename[]" value="<?=$filepath?>

Then after it's been submitted, run it through a foreach loop:

foreach($_POST['filename'] as $v) {

unlink($v);

}

My suggestion: Test this on something VERY unimportant 🙂

HTH,
