Will adding "nobody" to group "bldesign" make it possible for my php script

ask support if they'll do that for me. Thanks,

(assuming that the directory is group owned by dlsesign) - yup, that'll
work.  just don't forget that _anyone_ that has cgi access on that
server will be able to read/write to that directory...  On a shared
box, that may mean 100s of people.

Dunno if that matters to you, just thought I'd mention it.
