I use this script
<?
mkdir($dir "0777");
// ~ something wrong whith this 0777??~~~
?>
and then I upload a file by IE using php in
the directory I just created by php
then I use FTP login the server in the very directory
why I can not see the file uploaded????

but if I login the server whith user "root"
I can see it, why?

see the umask-informatieon on www.php.net. You probably need (if I recall correctly) to set the umask to 000 first ... What is the mode of the dir if you log in as root ?
