Creating a directory

[pinecone]

I want to make it so that when user registers at my site (or maybe when they're verified) a directory is created with that users name as the name of the directory. Within the directory I want an index file.

I have absolutely no idea how, or even if, this is possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Check out http://www.php.net/mkdir . You will get an idea of how to create a directory.

Not sure how to then create or move an index.? file into the newly created folder....... anyone??

Hope this helps you a little anyway.

Regards,

Oh and maybe after the dir is created you could use the copy() syntax to move the index file into every user dir you create.

Would this index file have any content? Already been created?

# Create a blank one
if(mkdir('/home/'.$username, 0755)) {
   touch('/home/'.$username.'/index.html');
}


# Copy one
if(mkdir('/home/'.$username, 0755)) {
   copy('/path/to/original/index.html', '/home/'.$username.'/index.html');
}

# Write a new one
if(mkdir('/home/'.$username, 0755)) {
   $body = 'Text to put in new index file';
   if(($open = fopen('/home/'.$username.'/index.html', 'w+')) !== false) {
      fwrite($body, $open);
      fclose($open);
   }
}
