note 77383 added to function.mkdir

On the other hand, splitting path on something else then a DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR may give unexpected results when someone accualy wants a file name with backslash in it! Moreover, neither Alan's nor pluto's code check for errors or return any value. Also, I don't like the isset($folder[$i]) technique -- there is a count() function you know. <?php function recursive_mkdir($path, $mode = 0777) { $dirs = explode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR , $path); $count = count($dirs); $path = '.'; for ($i = 0; $i < $count; ++$i) { $path .= DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $dirs[$i]; if (!is_dir($path) && !mkdir($path, $mode)) { return false; } } return true; } ?> It will only fail if someone specifies a mode which does not allow owner to create new entries in directory. ---- Server IP: 195.136.184.34 Probable Submitter: 217.96.228.130 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/77383 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77383 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/77383 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
