PHP Delete Files Script

I needed a script to delete all files inside a folder with certain extension, a script that could be executed with just a click. So here is how i did it:

<?
{
foreach (glob(“*.txt*”) as $fn) {
unlink($fn);
}
}
header(“Location: /1″);
?>

where *.txt is the extension im looking for delete and /1 is the directory inside im placing the script. I saved the above in a file named Delete.php and placed it inside the directory. Then I chmod’ed the entire directory with the following command:

chmod -R /var/www/1

The script works without a flaw.
