 Looked up on the manual about the chmod() function for PHP, nice but it

 halt the script if there is no write permission or something.

Um, not sure what this meant with the fileperms() function.  I have file
permission as -rw-r--r-- or 644 and when using hte fileperms() funciton,
it spitted a result as 33188.  If you know what it is then I'm all ear!
Don't know what the hell is 33188 stand for, so will stick to easier
functions, is_writeable() and is_readable().

Thank for the response!

33188 (base 10) == 0x100644 (base 8).
