Re: Recursively create directories

Hello. I just registered to the listserv about two weeks (my 1st time typing here). I'm just curious, if you don't mind me asking. I'm just trying to learn more. But, would someone list any scenarios in which one would want to create directories recursively by using php? Thanks in advance.
