Script to delete files..

[Dolemite50]

Hello,

I have a website that is hosting mp3's. They are all named and the path is stored in mysql such as 1234.mp3.

I am wanting to do a little cleanup and write a script that will check every mp3 file on the site, and then verify through a loop that the song exists in the DB. If not, I want to delete it.

I know how to use unlink but am not sure how to setup a loop that will get the filename of every mp3 within a certain directory.

Any help?

Thanks.

Modify this example given from the manual [man]opendir[/man]

<?php
$dir = "/etc/php5/";

// Open a known directory, and proceed to read its contents
if (is_dir($dir)) {
   if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
       while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
           echo "filename: $file : filetype: " . filetype($dir . $file) . "\n";
       }
       closedir($dh);
   }
}
?>
