Keep getting error when trying to delete directory

[pneudralics]

I keep getting permission denied error for my rmdir(). All files are deleting but when trying to delete the directory afterwards I keep getting errors.

function EmptyDir($search_dir) {
$handle=opendir($search_dir);

while (($file = readdir($handle))!==false) {
@unlink($search_dir.'/'.$file);
}

closedir($handle);

rmdir($search_dir); //Delete directory

}

EmptyDir($search_dir);

//Warning: rmdir(../../gallery/fdfgdfg) [function.rmdir]: Permission denied  
//Directory:fdfgdfg

[Maq]

Well what are the permission on the directory and who's the owner?

Well what are the permission on the directory and who's the owner?

 

Permission when created is 777. I'm not understanding the owner part. This is all on WAMP on my computer.
