Having users set proper permissions on a "working" directory crosses eyes... let alone the introduces the possibility of a security risk as "777" is the lowest common denominator here!

0700 is the lowest, if you make this directory owned by web server process.


If you're very concerned about having PHP files writeable, you can force PHPTAL to compile everything beforehand (e.g. in Makefile or install script) and then make these files read-only, e.g.:

foreach($all_template_files as $file)
{
  $phptal->setTemplate($file);
  $phptal->prepare();
  chmod($phptal->getCodePath(), 0400);
}

but I don't recommend this, because PHPTAL will panic if you later change source files and it won't be able to recompile them.
