Deleting A File

[Anon]

can someone show me of a good way to delete a file though a query. I want it to search the directory and delete the file if found.

Thanks,
Danny

Eh? you want to give a filename, then search a directory for that file and delete it?

why don't you just see if the file is there directly and delete it if it is?

I want to delete the file through user query 😮

And the difference is.....

The script i have clears the entire dir of files, i just want to eliminate one file on users request 🙁

I suppose you have a script that lets the user choose which file he want's to delete?
then you also know the exact location of the file don't you?
use unlink() to delete the file.

Just make sure you have a security check, or people could simply access your script directly and tell it to delete itself, or worse...
