Delete function on uploader

[LemonInflux]

I have built an image uploader, but with logins etc. etc. for people to have their own areas. However, it suddenly dawned on me, there is no way to actually delete files. I tried to think of a way, but I can't think of any way to do it. NOTE: This is flat, no SQL. Here's the core code for the uploader:

 

<?
//print_r($_POST);

if($_POST["action"] == "Upload Image")
{
unset($imagename);

if(!isset($_FILES) && isset($HTTP_POST_FILES))
$_FILES = $HTTP_POST_FILES;

if(!isset($_FILES['image_file']))
$error["image_file"] = "An image was not found.";


$imagename = basename($_FILES['image_file']['name']);
//echo $imagename;

if(empty($imagename))
$error["imagename"] = "The name of the image was not found.";

if(empty($error))
{
$newimage = $f_user . "/" . $imagename;
//echo $newimage;
$result = @move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image_file']['tmp_name'], $newimage);
if(empty($result))
$error["result"] = "There was an error moving the uploaded file.";
}

}

?>

<center><form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="image_upload_form" action="<?$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];?>">
<input type="file" name="image_file" size="20">
<br><br><input type="submit" value="Upload Image" name="action">
</form></center>
<div align="center"><br>
  <?
if(is_array($error))
{
while(list($key, $val) = each($error))
{
echo $val;
echo "<br>\n";
}
}
?>
  <?
$handle = @opendir($f_user);

if(!empty($handle))
{
while(false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
{
if(is_file($f_user . "/" . $file))
echo '<a href=http://www.reflexprojects.net/rs/upload/'. $f_user .'/'. $file .'>'. $file .'</a><br><br>';
}
}

closedir($handle);
?>

 

The best solution would be for the files to list in a 2-column table, with the name/link on the left (<a href=http://www.reflexprojects.net/rs/upload/'. $f_user .'/'. $file .'>'. $file .'</a>) and the 'delete' option on the right.

 

CODEKEY:

 

$f_user = username (stores files in a folder named with their username)

bump. It doesn't have to be in a table, it's just that would be best.

[LemonInflux]

although...There's probably no such thing, but is there a way to 'explode' different files? Stupid question, but if you could, I could work this out.

bump

So do you want to list your images in a directroy and then to the right of them place a link where users can delete their pics?

 

And it probaly not a gd idea to keeping posting to your own topic as you will get banned.

[LemonInflux]

that's what I want to do, yes. And I believe in the rules it said to bump your topic every once in a while. This was opened about 3 hours ago, and I am bumping it every half hour to every hour

I just saw two posts straight after each other anyway

 

To list your code you will need some thing like this

 

  <?php
$files = array();
$dir=opendir("./PLACEDIRHERE");
while(($file = readdir($dir)) !== false)  
{  
if($file !== '.' && $file !== '..' && !is_dir($file))  
{  
	$files[] = $file;  
}  
}  
closedir($dir);
natcasesort($files);
echo "<ul>\n";
for($i=0; $i<count($files); $i++)  
{
if($files[$i] != "index.php")
echo "<li><a href=\"$dir/".$files[$i]."\">".$files[$i]."</a><a href=\"delete.php?del=$files[$i]\"> - Delete</a></li>\n";
}
echo "</ul>\n";
?>

I have made the list for you now you need to make the delete.php script just a hint you will need to use a combination of the get command and the unlink command

[LemonInflux]

It didn't work..

[LemonInflux]

Can I bump it now?

[LemonInflux]

(1 and a half hours later) bump

[LemonInflux]

<?php

$file = $f_user"/"$_GET['del'];

if(unlink($file)) {
echo "The file was deleted successfully.";
}
else {
echo "There was an error trying to delete the file.";
}
?>

 

The code I'm using with yours. I typed the directory ID wrong. So what's wrong with this? $f_user is there because the folder is the user's username. EG. Testuser uploading test.gif would end up with the file in /testuser/test.gif. Anyways, problems?

last bump, if no answer, I'm giving up.

EDIT: Oh, sorry, bumped it.
