http://www.php.net/function.unlink

unlink() takes a string as an argument, and deletes the file at that
path. For example, to delete /usr/local/foo/bar.txt, just call:

unlink("/usr/local/foo/bar.txt");

Of course this assumes that permissions are set correctly. You'll
probably need write permissions on the file or directory for the user
account that your webserver runs under.
