xattr_remove —
Remove an extended attribute
Description
bool xattr_remove
( string $filename
, string $name
[, int $flags
] )
Extended attributes have two different namespaces: user
and root. The user namespace is available to all users, while the root namespace
is available only to users with root privileges. xattr operates on the user
namespace by default, but this can be changed with the
flags
parameter.

Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
