Ooooops, sorry! My mistake. is__writable should be: <?php function is__writable($path) { if ($path{strlen($path)-1}=='/') //Start function again with tmp file... return is__writable($path.uniqid(mt_rand()).'.tmp'); elseif (ereg('.tmp', $path)) { //Check tmp file for read/write capabilities if (!($f = @fopen($path, 'w+'))) return false; fclose($f); unlink($path); return true; } else //We have a path error. return 0; // Or return error - invalid path... } ?> The original could've deleted a folder if the path was invalid to start with (no trailing slash..) and the folder was writable to begin with... ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 124.177.140.212 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-writable.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/68630 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68630 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/68630 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
