Checkbox arrey to unlink

[owweb]

Hello,

Any help would be really appreciated ....... <sigh>

I have been racking my head for 2 days tiring to get four pictures to unlink. The best way I have found is to use a checkboxes but I only wont to check one box that would array the other three. I have tried java but I would receive a error

###############
Warning: unlink() failed (Permission denied) in c:\phpdev5\www\public\mincom\item_delete_save.php on line 45

Below is both pages..... first one is the form and the one below it is the return of the submission

if you're getting a permission denied error, then it's nothing to do with the code - you simply don't have permission to delete the files.

you need to ftp into the server and chmod the files to give yourself permission. i can't remember the exact detail, possibly 744? look up chmod on google.

Hi weekender,

thanks for the responce....

I have all the files set at 777, thats not the issue it seems not to pass the value unless I use the checkboxes....do you know of any way to have a array so when you click one check box it will check all the otheres?

I also made a misstake on my first post....the error should had been " It is a Directory " ......sorry, 🙂
