Help With Removing Files And Folders removing all files from a directory

Is there a function or a group of functions which I can use to delete all the files an folders in a directory? I've tried rmdir() but it complains that it can't remove it because there are files/folders in it.

Try using FileMenager under your cPanel.

I know cPanel can do that, but I would like a function which I can use in my php scripts, rather than having to delete it manually each time.

hey cmat go here it might help you out.

http://us3.php.net/function.unlink

and or

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.rmdir.php

both give some info on doing it if you have not already gone to this site.

Thanks S_M. I've modified one of the scripts provided in the user notes section and it now works
