Re: how do I do file maintenance with PHP?

I guess that someone posted a good script to browse through the contents of a specified directory and browse through it. Search through the archives for the last week or so and you shoudl land up with it. If you don't write baxck to me. I have a similar script that I wrote but I need to search for it. I will send that to you. The script does eactly what you want -filesystem manipulation after database matching. Also, to limit the filesize for uploaded files, take a look at the uploading files section of trhe php manual http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php there are good code snippets to achieve this. hope that helps best regards Ankur Verma HCL Technologies A1CD, Sec -16 Noida, UP India ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kenneth R Zink II" <Hellcat1@EV1.Net> To: "PHP" <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2001 11:30 PM Subject: [PHP] how do I do file maintenance with PHP? Ok here is the deal. I have a Linux server running PHP4 and MySQL and a directory full of images. The images that are currently being used should be listed in a table (members) in a column titled "pic1". What is the best way to pull the file names of the files and check them against the files in the table? I want all files that are not listed in the table to be deleted. Also, is there a way to limit file size? I don't want new images to be accepted if they exceed 250k. It takes too long for images to display if they are larger then that.
