to upload an image for a photo gallery (my own code) I have to have permission for the directory images 0777. but having permission for a directory 0777 is REALLY bad idea, isn't it? I'm "owner" of the directory (lamp:lamp images). what to do to set my code has permission to upload an image into the images directory and have permissions on the directory 0755? I googled for file uploader scripts and classes to se how they handle it but I can't see that part. just file/size/type validation and moving uploaded file to final destination. thanks. -LLA simple way is have your program create the dir, instead of you doing it with ftp or a file manager on the sever. Then your scripts will "own" the dir.
