note 99747 added to function.chmod

BEWARE, a couple of the examples in the comments suggest doing something like this: chmod(file_or_dir_name, intval($mode, 8)); However, if $mode is an integer then intval( ) won't modify it. So, this code... $mode = 644; chmod('/tmp/test', intval($mode, 8)); ...produces permissions that look like this: 1--w----r-T Instead, use octdec( ), like this: chmod(file_or_dir_name, octdec($mode)); See also: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.octdec.php ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 71.199.7.202 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.chmod.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/99747 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99747 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/99747 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
