Help with creating directories on server!

[daxguy]

I have written a piece of code that create a directories, files on the server using mkdir and touch and also inserts the form data into the table.. the code gets executed and the info gets stored in the database but the part which has the create directories. and files dont work as it doesnt create the directory and files on the server.. do i need to make changes to the php.ini file to enable the mkdir and touch feature to get enabled? as i said the code executes without any error.. I dont know wat to do.. please any help would be appreciated!!

mkdir can create directories recursively. So your above code can be reduced down to

 

mkdir("news_upload/$year/$month/$day", 0777, true);
touch("news_upload/$year/$month/$day/$title.php");

[daxguy]

can i add the file permisson to the touch as well? like

touch("news_upload/$year/$month/$day/$title.php",0777, true);

???
