从包含反斜杠的服务器中删除目录（PHP）

On my way to learning the mkdir(); function in PHP, I have created a folder on my server with a path like so

 files/New\\\\

Now, I can not delete this for the life of me... I found one other post that said I would need to use

 rmdir();

and escape the backslashes with more backslashes...

Needless to say, I can not get this to work... I had no idea that PHP added slashes through a post. I know from here forth I should use stripslashes(); but for now, I am stuck with two non deletable folders.

Any ideas guys?

Quick'n'dirty script:

$filename = glob('../files/*');

foreach($filename as $file) {

    print "'". $file. "' ";
    if(strstr($file,'New')) {
        if(is_file($file)) {
            unlink($file);
        }
    }
}
foreach($filename as $file) {
    if(strstr($file,'New')) {
        r_rmdir($file);
    }
}

function r_rmdir($dir) {
   if (is_dir($dir)) {
     $objects = scandir($dir);
     foreach ($objects as $object) {
       if ($object != "." && $object != "..") {
         if (filetype($dir."/".$object) == "dir") r_rmdir($dir."/".$object); else unlink($dir."/".$object);
       }
     }
     reset($objects);
     rmdir($dir);
   }

}

1.

This should remove all the folders and files you have created for both directories, just run this script and it should remove them both completely

PHP

rmdir("../files/New\\\\/thumbnail");
rmdir("../files/New\\\\");

$filename = glob('../files/New\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/*');

foreach($filename as $file) {

    if(is_file($file)) {
        unlink($file);
    }
}
rmdir("../files/New\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/thumbnail");
rmdir("../files/New\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\");

Have you tried renaming the folder with php? Like, so

PHP

$oldname = '../files/New\\\\';

$newname = '../files/please';

rename($oldname, $newname);
