unlink error

[George Botley]

Hello again guys....

 

I am having trouble with unlink to delete images now...

 

Here is the full script

 

<? 

$delete = $_GET["delete"];
$title = $_POST["title"];

if('yes' == $delete) {

/* Check if user has actually chosen a value */
if(empty($title)) {	
echo "<div class='alerterror_info'>
<strong>Please Choose A Category...</strong> - $fname, Please choose a category you would like to delete...</div>";	
}

/* If returned true remove photos and category */
else {

$con = mysql_connect("$server","$dbuser","$dbpass");
$database = mysql_select_db("$database", $con);

	/* Delete Photos from Server */
	$query_find = "SELECT * FROM ap_gallery WHERE category = '$title'";
	$runquery_find = mysql_query($query_find);

		while($row = mysql_fetch_array($runquery_find)) {
			$photourl = $row["photourl"];

			unlink("./userfiles/image/$photourl");

		}

	/*
	$query = "DELETE FROM ap_gallery_cat WHERE title = '$title'";
	mysql_query($query); 	

	$querytwo = "DELETE FROM ap_gallery WHERE category = '$title'";
	mysql_query($runquery);

	echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;url=index.php?ToDo=WebsiteContent/Gallery&error=no3' />";
        */

}




}




?>

 

Some functions are commented to disable the run whilst I get the unlink inorder.

 

Any ideas?

Anyone know?

personally, i didn't know you could use unlink on images (never bothered trying it - makes sense though).

 

try this:

unlink("userfiles/image/".$photourl);

 

I think you just wrote the string wrong. If that doesn't work, you might want to try this, too:

unlink("userfiles/image".$photourl);

 

You might not need the tailing slash, as your url already has it, or the server puts it in automatically in a string.
