The function ftp_size seems not to work on every FTP-Server. Using ftp_rawlist in combination with regular expressions is a slightly safer way to check for directories. <? function ftp_rmAll($conn_id,$dst_dir) { $ar_files = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, $dst_dir); if (is_array($ar_files)) { // makes sure there are files foreach ($ar_files as $st_file) { // for each file if (ereg("([-d][rwxst-]+).* ([0-9]) ([a-zA-Z0-9]+).* ([a-zA-Z0-9]+).* ([0-9]*) ([a-zA-Z]+[0-9: ]*[0-9]) ([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}) (.+)",$st_file,$regs)) { if (substr($regs[1],0,1)=="d") { // check if it is a directory ftp_rmAll($conn_id, $dst_dir."/".$regs[8]); // if so, use recursion } else { ftp_delete($conn_id, $dst_dir."/".$regs[8]); // if not, delete the file } } } } ftp_rmdir($conn_id, $dst_dir); // delete empty directories } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ftp-rmdir.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46331 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46331&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46331&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
