(And where I can find them?) You can put a tmp file in there and use filemtime() to check how old it is. When it's 20 days old, do your deletes. You can setup the check on the filemtime() with cron or whatever scheduling tools you use. if( ( @filemtime( 'tmp_file' ) + 20 * 24 * 60 * 60 ) > time() ) { // do deletes // make new tmp_file } -- Greg Donald Zend Certified Engineer http://destiney.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
