Ok, I have setup a subdirectory under my main www directory. The deal is, I have a survey and I want to redirect the input to a file. So, I set my survey php file in that sub directory and gave the file and sub directory a 747 chmod value. This is so when a user clicks submit, it allows them to write to the file where the results are to be kept. Ok, here's the question. Does giving a 747 chmod value compromise my security on the main www directory? The main directory is setup as 755. Do I have to worry about this or not?? Just want to make sure I don't give rwx capability to all the hackers out there....or atleast a doorway for them to do their magic. Thanks in advance.
