As far as I know, it's not a shared hosting issue, but a permission issue.
The site admin has not given the user under which your php scripts run
permission to create directories and most likely files and other file system
operations. It's a security issue.

Subject: [PHP] mkdir, Shared Hosting?
Hi,
I'm using Shared Hosting and I was told - then I learned from trial and
error - that you can't use mkdir on Shared Hosting... is this *100%* true?
is
there a way around it?
I get:
Warning: mkdir(/home/***/public_html/test/): Permission denied in
/home/***/public_html/test.php on line 3
So, again, is there any possible way around this? I've Googled, read the
manual but it seems that If I don't get an Error - I get nothing at all,
including the directory.
Thanks for any help!
