[SOLVED] List directory, and allow deletion of listed files

[jsschmitt]

Here is what i have:

 

				
$path = "access/";
$narray=array();
$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
echo "Directory Listing of $path<br/><br/>";
$i=0;
while($file = readdir($dir_handle))
{
     if($file != '.' && $file != '..')
    {
        //echo "<a href='$path/$file'>$file</a>";
        $narray[$i]=$file;
        $i++;
    }
}
sort($narray);
	for($i=0; $i<sizeof($narray); $i++)
{
echo "<a href='".$url.$path.$narray[$i]."' target='main'>".$narray[$i]."</a>";
	}
	//closing the directory
closedir($dir_handle);

 

And that creates a directory listing (that links to the files in an iframe) without any issues. What I want to do is add a "delete" button after each listed file that allows you to delete the file, but can't figure out how to "call" the specific url into a variable.

 

For an idea of the application of this, visit my site: www.anomymage.com and enter dir as the command...

Use realpath() to create the correct path to the file, and then delete the file with the unlink() function.

How would I call the URL from the page... in another page?

 

i.e. index.php lists the directory and links, and the delete button sends the url to delete.php

You will need to pass the radio button value which will be the realpath() of the file using your form and $_POST.

Thanks! Got it figured out!

 

$path = "access/";
$narray=array();
$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
echo "Directory Listing of $path<br/><br/>";
echo "<table>";
$i=0;
while($file = readdir($dir_handle))
{
     if($file != '.' && $file != '..')
    {
        //echo "<a href='$path/$file'>$file</a>";
        $narray[$i]=$file;
        $i++;
    }
}
	sort($narray);
	for($i=0; $i<sizeof($narray); $i++)
{
echo "<tr><td><a href='".$url.$path.$narray[$i]."' target='main'>".$narray[$i]."</a></td><td><FORM action='delete.php' method='post' name='delete'><input type='hidden' value='".$path.$narray[$i]."' name='url'><input type='submit' value='Delete' id='entcom' /></FORM></td></tr>";

}
//closing the directory
closedir($dir_handle);
