noobie question but help please

[stuckwithcode]

I have a script that uploads pictures to a folder.  I used mkdir to create this folder and sub folders.

 

Do I need to chmod folders and files, do i need to do this to my other html, php and image files.

 

I am completetly confused who is the owners group etc

 

thanks

If you used the PHP mkdir() then the dirs are owned by the user that the webserver runs as and so the webserver should be able to upload images there.  If you used the operating system mkdir, then you will have to chmod the dirs to be writable by all users or chown them to the webserver user.
