How Do I delete A File?

Can't Post

use unlink.
unlink "file.txt";
If the file is located in another directory than the one your script is executing from, then simply specify the full path before the file's name.
unlink "/path/to/file.txt";
To check and see if this code fails, use this
unlink "file.txt" or die "Couldn't Delete File because: $!";
Instead of die you can use print to actually print the message to the screen, when you execute your code through a browser this will help more than die, but the script will continue executing.
