unlink failed - no such file or directory

Hy , I’m trying to delete a file after I wrote in, and read it. I’m connected as $user in his home directory. The create and read are working. But for the delete is giving me as if the file not exist. What is wrong ? ( php3, apache) //create ok $mesg = « text « ; $file="ftp://$user:$pass@$server/directory/text.txt"; $filehandle=fopen($file,"w"); fputs($filehandle,$mesg,strlen($mesg)); fclose($filehandle); //read ok $fileR = "ftp://$user:$pass@$server/directory/text.txt"; $fp = @fopen($fileR,"r"); if($fp) { while (!feof ($fp)) { $buffer = fgets($fp, 4096); echo $buffer; } fclose($fp); } //delete file :-(( $file = "ftp:// $user:$pass@$server/directory/text.txt"; unlink($file); Warning: Unlink failed (No such file or directory) ====== Thanks, Misica ______________________________________________________ Boîte aux lettres - Caramail - http://www.caramail.com
