PHP Deleting images -

i have admin system adds profile pages dynamically - , part of adds images directory. when add images have name format 12_1.jpg, 12_2.jpg, 32_1.jpg, 32_9.jpg number before underscore id $cid , number after underscore image number.

i'm trying find way list images on edit-images.php page option delete them (maybe link next image name, or way better).

here code find images need have option of deleting:

if ($handle = opendir('../images/company')) {     while (false !== ($entry = readdir($handle))) {             if (substr(basename($entry), 0, 2) == $cid) {         echo $entry . "<br>";       }     }     closedir($handle); } 

how go deleting specified images here? appreciated.

why scanning directory file? can check if file exists , delete instead. example:

$files = glob("../images/company/$cid_*.jpg"); foreach($files $file) {   if(file_exists($file)) unlink($file); } 

this unlink files in ../images/company name starting 123_ example , ending in .jpg (you can provide more extensions using glob_brace parameter)
