note 87613 added to function.fileperms

to @Martin: In fact decoct does not always return a 6-digit long int (or 6-char long string), therefore function calls you indicated do not always work (ex: decoct() returned "40755" => substr("40755", 3) returned "55" where "755" was expected). Instead I used: (minus sign used on second parameter) <?php substr(decoct(fileperms("test.html")),-3); // Displays 666 or 777 (depends on chmod set) substr(decoct(fileperms("test.html")),-4); // Displays 0666 or 0777 and refers immediately to the number set with chmod(); ?> Thx, Remy ---- Server IP: 130.206.1.5 Probable Submitter: 81.202.179.198 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fileperms.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/87613 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/87613 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/87613 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
