e.g., if I have a /www/pics/2005/01 directory, and I delete the www/pics/2005 directory locally (no longer want to show those pics), I need to go into all the subdirs of www/pics/2005 and delete their contents so I can delete the directories, recursively, but in reverse order
Just as a starting point, I'd like to point out that you can implement the logic for the filesystem, with File::Find, if you just use the function finddepth. That function will call the callbacks first for the deepest nesting level, and handle the parent directory
later.
So, perhaps you could reimplement File::Find but for working over Net::FTP, instead of on the local filesystem?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
