Dear Avi, Looking your code I knew that you are onli deleting Records from your Table. At 1st you have to delete your stored file from folder named "uploads". To do this you have to get the filename (path) from the records, like this way: Getting filename from ID: ------------------------------------------ <?php $ImgID = $_REQUEST['m_ id']; $SQL= "Select FROM model_photos WHERE m_id='$ImgID ' "; $imgResult= mysql_query( $SQL) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error( )); $TotalRec=mysql_num_rows($imgResult); if($TotalRec>=1){ $row = mysql_fetch_array($imgResult); $imgFile=$row['Col Name']; //Where your file name stored unlink($imgFile); //when you getting error code while unlink file like permission denied then you have change the permision of that file before deleting it //Just put chmod() function just before unlink() function. Like: chmod($imgFile,0755) access primision to everyone //Now you can delete your database also $m_id = $_REQUEST['m_ id']; $query = "DELETE FROM model_photos WHERE m_id='$m_id' "; $result = mysql_query( $query) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error( )); } ?> Regards & Thank You, Suman K.
