If you want to delete EVERYTHING, an exec("rm -r $path") could potentially be much more efficient. You'd be trading the cost of opening up a mini-shell against PHP iteration, so it would depend on the number of directories, but if there are LOTS of files, the rm -r will probably win. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
