delete images..

[techker]

hey guys i have a script that inserts info in a mysql database and moves an image to a directory and inserting the path in the db.(instead of using the database to store images)

 

no the problem is that when you delete the query it does not delete the pic.so he is going to have a nasty accumulation of images after a couple of years..lol

 

so i was wondering if somebody can tel me how or point me in the right direction to haw to make a script that will show the images in a directory and you can delete the unwanted pic..

i got this that views the directory and lists the images name.now the only thing i need to know is to link the name to a delete file that hase the unlink function

 

<?php

$imgdir = './'; // the directory, where your images are stored
$allowed_types = array('png','jpg','jpeg','gif'); // list of filetypes you want to show

$dimg = opendir($imgdir);
while($imgfile = readdir($dimg))
{
  if(in_array(strtolower(substr($imgfile,-3)),$allowed_types))
  {
   $a_img[] = $imgfile;
   sort($a_img);
   reset ($a_img);
  } 
}

$totimg = count($a_img); // total image number
  
for($x=0; $x < $totimg; $x++)
{
  $size = getimagesize($imgdir.'/'.$a_img[$x]);

  // do whatever
  $halfwidth = ceil($size[0]/2);
  $halfheight = ceil($size[1]/2);
  echo 'name: '.$a_img[$x].' width: '.$size[0].' height: '.$size[1].'<br />';
}

?>

 

i need the link to echo the name of the file to delete.for the unlink to work
