How To Delete Files When Session Ends

Dear FriendsI need solution to a problem. The problem is as under:I am creating certain files (playlist) in server disk when user selects some songs. The files are created in ram format. What I want to do is to delete these files created during a particular session. Is it possible to do so? Now I am deleting these files using on Unload event fired by JavaScript. I am using PHP.

I think it is possible to delete the files before the session is ended by using the unlink() php function, but you need the correct system priviligies to do it.Best regards,

Or use a system call?

Yes you are right, it is another solution but many host servers for security reasons disable this functions so you can't use it.

Hi

I have just learnt how to do it. I think you can use the session_destroy() function. More information can be found at http://sg.php.net/session_destroy

I hope that the website would give you the answer that you are searching for.
