Remnant .tmp files

If you try edit a file, then navigate away from the
page without saving it, then the .tmp stays. However,
the tmp file is blank as a result, so when you go back
to edit the file, it's blank. I included a link on the
left of the site linking to a page with this code to
flush the .tmp files from the "content" directory.

##################################

// $d is the tmp directory handle
$d = opendir("../content/");
while (false !== ($file = readdir($d))) {
if (preg_match("/.tmp/", $file)) { // search for the
.tmp extension
unlink("../content/" . $file); // delete the .tmp file
}
}
closedir($d); // close the directory

header("http://www.yoursite.com/simpledir"); //
redirect back to the main page

###################################

Great work on the project though, keep it up!
