I would write a script that, when given no input, displays the directory. My script would use opendir() to open the directory, and readdir() to output those directories. It would output them as links in the form of "<a href=" from directory>">Name from directory</a>".
If the script finds an element "filename" in $_GET, it would then delete that entry using unlink().
Handling subdirectories might be tricky. You might want the script to move to that subdirectory and display its contents rather than delete it.

on my delete file page I have the script:
which works but I have to have the delete script in the same directory as what I'm trying to delete, if I want the delete file in another directory, how do I specify a path?
Code:
if(file_exists($file)) {
unlink($file);
echo "file $file deleted";
} else {
echo "no such file";
}which works but I have to have the delete script in the same directory as what I'm trying to delete, if I want the delete file in another directory, how do I specify a path?
