    This code is very dangerous. When loaded, clicking On any file on this page
    will cause that file To be deleted. I have Not put In a confirm delete page.
    I recommend doing so if you are ever going To use this delete function in a production 
    environment.

    <P>
    Click On any file below To delete it. I recommend adding a few junk files For demostration
    purposes.<P>
