Remove directories not empty

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

hi,
i have an array that contains some names (1,4,6,56...). Every integer is a name of a folder.

I must to delete only the folders in array, i use this code:

Code: $all_folders = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$all_folders[] = $row['folder_id'];
}

function removedirfiles($all_folders){
$open=readdir($all_folders);
while($files=readdir($open)){
unlink("$all_folders/$files");
}
rmdir($all_folders);
}

removedirfiles("$all_folders");

but it returns those errors:

readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource
rmdir(Array) [function.rmdir]: No such file or directory
