File Folders

Jul 12.2007

Hi

I have been searching for a tutorial that will give me some guidance on creating a file folder system for my my members.

The initial folder in the root directory will be called memberPhots.

With in this folder each member will have a subfolder created for them. The folder name will be their username.

Next I want to give members the ability to create additional subfolders in thier folder.

Hope this makes sense. If any one can point me to information to get me started. that would be excellent

@tcaJul 12.2007 — mkdir

Also, read up on isdir

You will need something like this:

[code=php]

//very simplified!

$new_dir = 'path/' . $username;

if (!isdir($new_dir) {
mkdir($new_dir) ;
}
[/code]
