This works for me:

<?php

$path = "tmp";
if ($handle = opendir($path))
        {
        while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
                {
                if ($file != "." && $file != "..")
                        {
                        $file_array[] = $file;
                        }
                }
        closedir($handle);
        }

if (isset($file_array))
        {
        echo ("<br/>---- before delete");
        echo ("<pre>");
        print_r($file_array);                   
        echo("</pre>");
        
        foreach ($file_array as $value)
                {
                unlink("$path/$value");
                }
        }
else
        {
        echo ("<br/>---- nothing to delete");
        }
?>
