Making Folders and Files

[Anon]

I'd love some help on this!!

How can I use PHP to create new directories (folders) or new files?

I'm on a FreeBSD server, but I use shared hosting and don't have the ability to install new pieces of code, etc.

Here's more or less what I need to do - I want to have users enter a name, and then have PHP build a folder in the same directory on the server, and put a file into it. I'd like the file to be modifiable such that the file is distinct in each case.

Either of these two things, preferably both, would be a GREAT help!!
