Hi,
I am using this upload script http://webdev.mtnpeak.net/index.php?pg=php . The problem is, i cant set it to delete files which are older than a certain period of time,say like 2 weeks. So i need a PHP script that can delete files after a certain time. Is there such a script? Thanks in advance. I really appreciate it.

I think I have written a WSH VBScript application that does what you want and can be downloaded via the linked to page with an example usages. I use this scripts to delete and/or Archive files to a compressed drive. It is designed to run WSH XML from a BAT file using the windows scheduler. inside each bat file are Delete and/or Archive Jobs that you want to run on servers to keep them clean of files left behind by users or misbehaving application. logs are created for each file that was deleted or moved to the archive location. I created this "archiving" feature because most of the files that are being deleted not mine so I mail out the delete logs for final approval. A job is also run on the Archive location so files are automatically deleted after 90 days. This should give the users enough time to let you know it they would like a file restored

Examples of variables that can be defined via the WSH jobs are ... Name of the files using regular expressions, Age of the file in days, folder to be searched, and log file to create.

Here is the link to the Site....

Please forgive me as the salesman in me comes out here.... If it Scripts save you time/effort or eliminates the need to purchase more drive space. Please feel free to donate an amount you feel comfortable with

as always suggestion for improvements are always welcome
