Question

I ask for help with PHP code.
Simple unlink function works, but when it is in loop, it doesnt work. There has to be a problem somewhere. So heres the problem. I have a simple page where you can delete the navigation items. If user deletes navigation item (hes an administrator) and that link to page with some photos in it, I want to delete these photos when the user delete whole page.
The PHP code:

$sql2 = "SELECT * FROM foto WHERE ID=".$inid;
    $vysledek = mysql_query($sql2) or die (mysql_error());
    while ($zaznam= MySQL_Fetch_Array($vysledek)) {
                $path = "maly/maly".$zaznam["url_v"];
                unlink($path);
                $path2 = "uploads/".$zaznam["url_v"];
                unlink($path2);     
            } 

This code wont delete all matched photos.

Answer 1

First the statement

$sql2 = "SELECT * FROM foto WHERE ID=".$inid;

Might be incorrect, perhaps

$sql2 = "SELECT * FROM foto WHERE ID='".$inid."'";

(ignoring the fact of potential SQL injection).

But,

Why not echo the values of the current working directory along with $path and $path2 to find out what is going wrong?

Otherwise it is difficult to tell.

BTW – mysql_* libraries are deprecated. Should move to summat like PDO or mysqli.
