flatfile delete

[xcoderx]

guys i have a script which stores my datas in a store.php file and also displays it from there. but the script aint got delete option so if i want to delete comething how would i do it from admincp?? ???

[dclamp]

you can use unlink()

[xcoderx]

how would i do that? i mean fetch the data written there and select which one to delete? ???

[ballhogjoni]

are you asking to delete part of the file contents or are you asking to delete the entire file?

i particular row from comments posted by an user, its all stored in a store.php file im wondering how would i delete a particular comment from a user?

this is messy, use database next time. Read all about editing files at http://us2.php.net/fopen

undefined function emoticondecode() is your problem. a good start would be to define this function.
