Re: Multiple file delete

I have a page that displays the contents of a folder. Right now, each file has a little 'delete' button next to it that users can click on, however with many files it gets cumbersome. I need to be able to have them click on checkboxes and then hit one delete button which will then get rid of everything checked, but I don't know how to combine the form with PHP so that it takes the info from one into the other and delete what's needed. Any pointers would be very helpful. Thanks. -- A

Page 1 : <form action="page2.php" method="post"> <input type="checkbox" name="delete[]" value="file1name" />....<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="delete[]" value="file2name" />....<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="delete[]" value="file3name" />....<br /> <!-- More HTML --> Page 2 : <?php $size = sizeof ( $_POST['delete'] ); for ( $i = 0; $i < $size; $i++ ) {

    unlink ( $_POST['delete'][$i] );
