Deleting all the files in a directory

[Nakor]

I am looking for a way to delete all of the files in a directory, be it with wildcards or some sort of a function argument that I am not aware of. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

<?php$dir = "";foreach (glob("$dir/*") as $filename) {   echo "$filename - size: " . filesize($filename) . " bytes" . "\n";   unlink($filename);}?>

I haven't tested it, this is what I came up with from searching on http://www.php.net but all you should have to do is set the directory and in theory it should work.

Ah, yes that would work as well. I just ended up settling with

exec("rm -f *.*");

but now that I think about it, your solution would end up being better, as it is probably more platform independent.
