[PHP] Can't Make Directories Now
I figured out the permissions issue to allow gd to create image files,
but I also need to create folders for those images. I've come up with a
routine (below) but it fails to create the directories. I've made sure
that the directory that the first directory is created in has the
appropriate permissions, but it doesn't work.
?php
$path = path/path2/path3/path4/path5;
$buildingPath = existingFolder;
$pathComponents = split(/, $path);
foreach ($pathComponents as $value) {
$buildingPath = $buildingPath . / . $value;
print $buildingPath . 'br';
if (opendir($buildingPath) == false)
if (!mkdir($buildingPath))
print 'false br';
else
closedir($buildingPath);
}
?
The paths to the folders its supposed to create are correct
($buildingPath), but it always prints false signaling that mkdir has
failed.
This is the last remaining issue on getting my site finished. Well
except for uploading, but I don't need that just yet.

There is a lot of overhead with using opendir just to see if the
directoy exists other alternatives you might want to use is:
php.net/stat
php.net/is_dir
Or you can use the system's mkdir command wich usually has a
paramater to make all directories if they don't exist:
`mkdir -p path/to/new/dir/`
if (!mkdir($buildingPath))
print 'false br';
A print(false $buildingPathbr) might yield as to why it isn't
creating it.
