unlink

why doesn't the following work? it returns "Warning: Unlink failed (No such file or directory)"

php Code:

Original - php Code
if($myHandle = opendir($myDir)) { while(FALSE !== ($file = readdir($myHandle))) { if($file != "." && $file != "..") { $myArray[] = "$file"; } } if($myArray != "") { $total = count($myArray); if($total > 3) { $fileToDelete = reset($myArray); unlink("$fileToDelete"); } } closedir($myHandle) }

 
if($myHandle = opendir($myDir))
{
    while(FALSE !== ($file = readdir($myHandle)))
    {
    if($file != "." && $file != "..")
    {
        $myArray[] = "$file";
    }
    }
 
    if($myArray != "")
    {
    $total = count($myArray);
 
    if($total > 3)
    {
        $fileToDelete = reset($myArray);
        unlink("$fileToDelete");
    }
    }
    closedir($myHandle)
}

RE: unlink

k it wasn't the quotes.. apparently the problem was in copying the image to start with.. for some reason using "fopen" & "fwrite" to copy a file from another server onto my own in a directory other than the script executing it caused the file to not be a valid type.

so i just copied into the same dir as my script, and then used "copy" function to get it where i wanted and all is swell
