How to create/destroy a temporary directory

[nedbj2]

I need to be able to create a temporary directory for users that is automatically destroyed when they end their session, even if they do not actually "logoff". I looked for a directory function similar to the temp file functions, but there doesn't seem to be one. I also looked for some kind of session termination function that could be extended to clean things up, but to no avail. The only option I know will work is to run a cron job or something looking for abandoned directories, but that is too ugly for words. :queasy: Any suggestions?

All I can think of for something reasonably practical would be to use [man]session_save_handler/man and create a "gc" function that would delete the temp directory associated with a session when "garbage collection" is initiated. It would therefore probably be convenient to use the session ID as part/all of the directory names.
