I have checked the archives but have not been able to find a suitable
answer.
I have a couple of scripts that allow my users to upload files to the
server. At the same time, it logs an entry in a MySQL database that links
the temp file name created on the server to a name that makes sense for the
user.
Here is the problem:
When a user deletes a file from their area, it only deletes in the MySQL
database. It does not remove the actual file from the directory on the
server.
How can I send a command to remove it from the server within PHP?
Thanks,
Paul
