I have just the thing, I just happen to be at work at the moment and won't be back home for about 5 hours. Here's a quick snippet I found that does basically the same thing. If it doesn't work, send me an email off list and I'll dig out my code from home.
If you put it into a function, then you just call is recursively using each of the subdirectories.
<?phpsource>
$path = ".";
$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path");
while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) unlink($file);
closedir($dir_handle);
<phpsource?>

Anyone know a 'select all' command? Or a nice loop...
