fopen problem

[ph3n0m]

Hi all

I recently created a system that allowed people to create and write to files located on a server. That in itself presented no problems.

However my problem is that when the files are created, it gives them a rw-r--r-- permissions

The code below is what I am using to create the file

$file_pointer2 = fopen($file_name2, "a+");

Is there anyway I can use this existing code but also to set the permissions of the file so that I can log into the server (via ftp) and delete them, as this option isnt available with the current file settings

[man]chmod[/man]

already tried that, however it wont allow for chmod

how should i put the chmod command in

like this :

$file_name1 = "page1.php";
chmod ($file_name1, 0755);
$file_pointer1 = fopen($file_name1, "a+");

or like this:
$file_name1 = "page1.php";
$file_pointer1 = fopen($file_name1, "a+");
$fclose($file_pointer1)
chmod ($file_name1, 0755);

Actually that (0755) will give them rights to execute whatever file they create, are you sure you want ot allow that?
