Hi all,
I need to be able to write files (for example, thumbnail images) to a
directory using a PHP script. The problem is I'd rather not give world
write access to the thumbnail directory. Is there a way I can change users
inside the PHP script so that it can change to a user with write access or
so that chmod doesn't give me a no permission error? Is there some other
way I can accomplish the same thing? (Kevin, I suppose you have dealt with
this issue on Brickshelf?) If I can't use PHP, what can I use?
Thanks for the help!
