Delete Field After X Days?
I have a table containing user created data, and once this data is 30 days old id like to delete it from my database. Whent the data is uploaded initially i add date(Y-m-d); to my database, however i cant get my head around how to add 30 days to this and check it. so, i was considering creating another field to hold a unix timestamp when the data is uploaded, then simply seeing if this field was less than the current timestamp minus 2592000 (30 days in seconds).

How To Delete All Database Entires Older Than 30 Days?
One of the fields in my database is called ad_date which is of date type and stored dates int he format YYYY-MM-DD. I would like to perform a DELETE SQL statement in my PHP script which deletes all records with an ad_date value older than 30 days. I knoy this is also an SQL question, but it is the 'older than 30 days' part which I'm stuck with and so figured it would be better in the PHP forum as I think I need to use PHP to calculate todays date - 30 days.

Delete Files - Check All Files In /home/radar/kabc*.png
Trying to figure out a code to do something that is probably simple, but I'm not able to find anything to combine to make it happen. Here is what i'd like to accomplish. Check all files in /home/radar/kabc*.png --- if those files are older than x hours, delete them. After deleting those files, I'd like to copy new "placefiles" in the place of the image, basically, copy test.png to kabc101.png (example filename). I'd like to not loop this process if the file size is equal to 123456 bytes exactly, and have the owner of those files a certain user. What this is, is a radar software that I use to upload to my personal website, so if there's no weather going on, I don't use the radar software, and it's not updating the radar on the web, so, after so many hours of the software not uploading anything new, i'd like to find a way to have these placefiles put in place. Once I start my software again, it'll overwrite those files automatically. Does this seem like it's possible? Is it an easy task?

Can't Delete My Own Files
i'm trying to create some directories on my server via a script, and copy standard files into them. it all goes smoothly, but i cannot delete the files when i log into my webserver's FTP. i'm guessing wrong chmod code, but its so long since i used unix. here is the code: Quote: $h_name = "test"; copy("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/EXAMPLE_HOTEL.php","$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/$h_name.php"); copy("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/EXAMPLE_HOTEL_window.php","$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/{$h_name}_window.php"); mkdir("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/$h_name", 0777); copy("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/EXAMPLE_index.html","$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/photos/$h_name/index.html");

Delete Files
I have a part of my site that will allow a user to create a group. When they create the group then can assign a picture to that group. I store the filename in the db and then I create create a folder for them on my web server and upload the image to there. My question is if they choose to update their picture I want to delete the old file and then upload the new file that they choose to be their picture. How would I do this. I know that I would have to run a query to get the old file name before updating it in the db but after I get that I'm not sure how to delete it from the web server. I also know how to upload the file so that isn't a problem either, it's just the step before that of deleting it from the server.

Delete Files That Contain Quotes
I created a file upload form. After uploading file that had a quotation mark in it, PHP escaped the quotation mark and now the file name has an illegal character in it. It seems that move_uploaded_file() allowed the file to have the forward slash. I've correct the escaping of quotes issue by using stripslashes on the 2nd parameter. Now however any files already uploaded that have the illegal character can't seem to be deleted. I can't download them either through ftp. I am using an apache server hosted through site flip. Is there anything I can do to delete these files or am I stuck with them on the web host? Things I've tried. Renaming with PHP, renaming with FTP. None of those seem to work. Is there something I can install that will force a file rename even if it has invalid characters in it?

Delete Files Recursive
I have a problem and don't know where to begin. My default folder is export. This is where all the files comes in, with all kinds of extentions, but with also a lot of sub-folders. I have a text file with all the extentions, I like to delete from the export folder and all the subfolders. 1 extention at 1 row. Some of these extentions are 'exotic' like exe--fileslack ,so not only the common 3 characters extentions. Is there a way to delete those not wanted files automaticly, without harming the other extentions.

How To Delete Files Uploaded And Now Owned By PHP
Within homes/ PHP creates a directory, it's an integer such as homes/999 or homes/345. Within that new directory, PHP uploads some graphics, .gif or .jpg. The problem is, that directory and all those graphics are now "owned" by PHP, usually running as nobody or www. I can't delete them or copy them. I've tried running a chown() within PHP to make myself the owner, but I get "operation not allowed". The only solution I've found so far is to set umask(0), so that the directory and graphics have 777 permissions. I don't think that's very safe, though, is it? Does anyone have any suggestions. I want to be able to delete or copy the files like they are mine, but only me or my group. I'm not running the server myself, but those who are seem willing to work with me.

Unlink (delete Files) With Asterix's?
is it possible to delete a file and use an asterix? (or any wildcard) ie, I tried @unlink(Username_CV_."*"); and @unlink(Username_CV_.*); to no success. the ending is a date, so it could be Username_CV_june27_2007 or aug31 or whatever, and obviously I don't want to delete ALL the files from other users as well... I guess I could store the file name in a table, but it would be nicer to not need that to simply delete simple a file..

Delete Files On Win2k - Permission Denied

Days Of Week
I'm attempting to display information for today, the next day and the day after (so only three days worth). The first day is hardcoded to say now. I want the next day and the day after to be the abbreviated day (ie. Tue, Wed and so on). The problem I have with the following code is that now and the next day are the same. Thus, I have now (which is Tue), the next day (which is ALSO Tues - wrong!) and the day after is Wed. Here's the include: $return['mydata'] = array(); for($i = 0; $i < 2; $i++) { $attr = explode('"', $this->tag('blm:mydata',$i)); if(count($attr) > 1) { $day = array(); $day['when'] = $attr[1]; $day['image'] = IMAGES.$this->translate($attr[11]).'.gif' array_push($return['mydata'], $day); } } return $return; And here's the front-end page: echo " ".$stuff['mydata'][0]['when']."<br/>
