Do ../pages/ and /home/u2/sss/sss/html/pages/ resolve to exactly the same
place?

What does $_POST['Parentname'] contain ? Echo it's value to check.
The warning would make sense if it's empty. And get rid of the '/' in the
file_exists line. At best it doesn't make a difference.
Why use a relative path first, followed by an absolute path?
mkdir doesn't suck, really. It creates a directory or returns false and
throws a warning if that process fails.

Yes, I guess my monkeys were typing my code indeed.
They did resolve to the same place, BUT, Schraalhans was right.
$_POST['ParentName'] should have been $_POST['fileName'].
I got the two switched on the previous page. :O I feel sheepish.
I went through all the stuff at php.net and couldn't figure it out.
BTW I changed them both to absolute paths.

I think I've tried everything now and can't figure out how to do it.
I want to read in a text list from the current directory,

My text file would look something like this:

Good People,
I'm writing a backup utility that uses a chdir() to go into the source

wanted to create it using mkdir(), but it doesn't like the path...

Hy,
i encountered a weird problem on a server running php5, and apache.
Seems like i cannot create folders that end with "/".
for example:

mkdir("test") will work
Is there any issue with mkdir that i don`t know about? or safe_mode
affects this in any way?
The problem is that mkdir is called in lots of different places in the

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
