Create a folder in php?

Hello,

I was wondering if this could be done. Say I have a url

http://www.thewebsitedomnamehere.com/file.php?id=

then the id value could be any value 1, 2, 3, 4 etc...

Is there anyway I could automatically create a folder (named with that id value) with 777 chmod permissions when the page loads, and if the folder already exists then do nothing?

ie a folder named '1' for example

Thanks

 

Use mkdir().

 

<?php
mkdir($_GET['id'], 0777);
?>

Code (markup):

If you want to only allow numbers to create a dir use:

<?php
if (is_numeric($_GET['id'])) mkdir($_GET[id], 0777);
?>

Code (markup):

I hope that helps!

 

Use chmod("filename",077) to set folder permission once folder is created.
regards

 

<?php
mkdir($_GET['id'], 0777);
?>

Code (markup):

Should already set the permissions. Also, it should be 0777 not 077

 

Don`t forget to run sanity checks on $_GET['id'], you don`t want to end up trying to create a folder called /etc/passwd or something
