Re: How to use PHP to view the file permision???

Um, not sure what this meant with the fileperms() function. I have file permission as "-rw-r--r--" or "644" and when using hte fileperms() funciton, it spitted a result as "33188". If you know what it is then I'm all ear! Don't know what the hell is 33188 stand for, so will stick to easier functions, is_writeable() and is_readable(). Thank for the response! Scott F.
