Deleting files through a web based application

Hi guys,
I've been working on a project to record video and audio using a standard webcam and microphone. I have been given the basic coding and have it running using wowza media server and apache. When I press record the video is recorded and when I press send, a filename is created for it along with a thumbnail image, and the date and duration of the video which is stored in a datacontainer on the right of the main interface. When I select anything from the datagrid it plays back fine so I know that it is linked to the location of the physical .flv files which are on my hard disk (assume that this is the server). However, when I delete the files from the hard disk on my local machine the datagrid does not get rid of the actual entries, which is obvious because the code is not written to do so but I want to be able to delete the files remotely say if I this software was accessible online. The coding to delete it using actual parameters such as c:\etc etc won't work for me. What is there that I can do to create a button to delete the entries on the datacontainer as well as the physical .flv files by highlighting the entries in the datacontainer

I am using RTMP to stream the videos back and forth. I am using Actionscript 3.0 with flash CS3.

Thanks a lot for your help in advanced and I wish you all Merry Xmas.
