For a job I'm working on I need to let PHP-code write images to a directory. To be able to do that I need to make this directory read- and writeable. Concerned about the security, is this directory open for anyone to write into it? (Let say PHP-code form another server?) If so, how can I solve this without this security-risk? Thanks, SED
