note 102716 added to function.chmod

I was trying to change permissions of a folder with chmod command with FTP connection. (I needed a writable folder to upload pictures with php) I got the following respond: "SITE CHMOD 777 uploads: command not understood" The reason: Server is running under Windows system that does not allow to set file permissions via FTP. Conversely, the UNIX-running servers allow that. Solutions: 1. If your web hosting provider has a web-based control panel that lets you set file permissions, then you need to login there and make changes. 2. It is possible to contact the hosting provider and ask them about this issue; maybe they can make the changes. 3. It is possible to change the hosting provider that has servers run on UNIX, and keep the site there.
