Well, seeing as I have no directory anywhere in my file structure called
"/tmp" and yet my file uploads are still working, it would appear that my
temporary file upload directory "/tmp" given by php_info() is somewhere
outside of my root directory. So that's good news! That's were I'll be
doing

So I've been trying to figure out where php uploads files to temporarily
store them before I move them to their permanent storage directory, and I'm
having some difficulties:
-- php_info() says the temporary file upload directory is "/tmp" but I don't
know if that's relative to my root directory

The FTP will be slower, almost for sure.
He's doing it because he can FTP in as himself, and not as the
"nobody" user Apache runs as.
Your webhost has you running as yourself already, so you can chmod
your files at will in PHP.

Hey Tedd and Eric,
Between the two of you and Richard Lynch's last post, I understand why I can
use chmod() and mkdir() within php without having to use the ftp commands: I
run on a server that is configured to run my php scripts as "username" (ie.
me!) instead of as "nobody" (which is much more
Well, that didn't sound too good...
So I tried to implement the example code given in the php tmpfile()
documentation and it wouldn't do anything, which suggests that I don't have

It was never a question of speed for me -- it was a question of being
able to change file permissions from within a php script so that I
could create and write files safely.
You see, I am *not* able to use chmod() within a php script at all
regardless of what permissions the file and p

I may have hit "send" too soon...
Like, when you do FTP, do you see:
index.htm
page2.htm
page3.htm
right away?
*OR*, do you see:
public_html
And then you do "cd public_html" and THEN you see the files?
If you don't do "cd public_html" then I really don't think accepting
file uploads is a Go
So pretty much there's nothing to be done about it? If I can get the
chmod thing to make it so that you can't surf to your uploaded image
afterwards and view it, I'd be happy with that solution. I'd like to
stick with this host if I could.
