Here is a better recursive rmdir function, that relies on php's built-in dir class and
doesn't use messy directory changing.
<?php
function full_rmdir( $dir )
{
if ( !is_writable( $dir ) )
{
if ( !@chmod( $dir, 0777 ) )
{
return FALSE;
}
}
$d = dir( $dir );
while ( FALSE !== ( $entry = $d->read() ) )
{
if ( $entry == '.' || $entry == '..' )
{
continue;
}
$entry = $dir . '/' . $entry;
if ( is_dir( $entry ) )
{
if ( !$this->full_rmdir( $entry ) )
{
return FALSE;
}
continue;
}
if ( !@unlink( $entry ) )
{
$d->close();
return FALSE;
}
}
$d->close();
rmdir( $dir );
return TRUE;
}
?>
