<?
unlink("link to file.gif");
?>
Is that what you want?
unlink = delete?
And what would i put instead of file.gif? so that it automatically detects the image i want to delete?

If you had a form you could use
$file = $GET_['file'];
unlink($file);
i have got an upload form, as its a folio system?
How would i make that a link?
Sorry to bump but i need help

You could enter the name of the file into a form, or you could make each image have a delete hyperlink, which then has a GET variable with the file name in.

<?
$file = $_GET[file];
unlink("$file");
?>
Save that as delete.php
Then go to http://www.yourwebsite.com/delete.php?file=images/image.gif

You would nead to have a user system to define if your a admin as I could easily delete your site.

Make an upload form to submit the picture name into the database and upload to a directory.
Then just get a dropdown to pull all the image names from the database.
Hit submit and that name will insert into the unlink function.
Not hard at all ;)
