gggrrr mkdir

[anthill]

Hi,

I've just been testing a file uploading script, and i thought i'd add to it by making a user able to upload a file and add it to their own directory as their member ID.

For this i used mkdir($path. 0777); When running the code it created the directory and added the file to it..whopee. Only now I am unable to delete the file and folder from the website as it keeps saying permission denied.

Any ideas on how I can delete the files? I've tried so hard to change all permissions through PHP but still can't delete the files 🙁

Thanks

This is likely to be a umask issue. Read the contributed notes on the mkdir() page of the PHP manual. Try resetting the permissions using chmod() after you create the directory and file.
