Hi All, I get strange permission problems with fopen() ... $directory = "somedir"; $filename = $directory . "/somefile.txt";
$handle = fopen($filename, "w");    // gives: failed to open stream: Permission denied 
but, - fileperms($directory) gives: 0777 and is_writable($directory) gives "writable" - fileperms($filename) gives 0666 and is_writable($filename) gives "'writable" I'm testing on Windows XP SP2 with PHP 5.2.0 Any idea how to solve this ? TIA, Cor
I you belonged in the unixworld I would suggest to check the directory's permissions but I don't remember if this applies to windows as well... -- Thodoris
