Thank you for your kind reply.
Sorry but I forgot to tell you that the bud code I want to remove from the php files is very long string. That's why I want that the bash file read the string to be replace from a file. I have done the following modification to your script but this doesn't remove the code from the files, could you please help me with this ? What do I have to change ?


Code:
#!/bin/sh
VIRUS=virus
find /tmp/test/  -type f -name '*php' |
while read fname
do
   grep -q '$(cat virus)' $fname
   if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
      sed 's/$(cat virus)//g' $fname  >/tmp/file
      mv /tmp/file $fname
   fi
done



Thank you in advance for your kind reply.

get_included_files - Returns an array with the names of included or required files

SYNOPSIS
array get_included_files (void ) DESCRIPTION
Gets the names of all files that have been included using include(3), include_once(3), require(3) or require_once(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns an array of the names of all files. The script originally called is considered an "included file," so it will be listed together with the files referenced by include(3) and family. Files that are included or required multiple times only show up once in the returned array. EXAMPLES
Example #1 get_included_files(3) example <?php // This file is abc.php include 'test1.php'; include_once 'test2.php'; require 'test3.php'; require_once 'test4.php'; $included_files = get_included_files(); foreach ($included_files as $filename) { echo "$filename "; } ?> The above example will output: abc.php test1.php test2.php test3.php test4.php NOTES
Note Files included using the auto_prepend_file configuration directive are not included in the returned array. SEE ALSO
