chmod — Ändert die Zugriffsrechte einer Datei
Diese Funktion ändert die Zugriffsrechte der Datei spezifiziert in filename in die Zugriffsrechte um, die in mode spezifiziert sind.
Bedenken Sie, dass mode nicht automatisch für einen Oktalwert gehalten wird. Um sicher zu gehen, dass die Operation wie erwartet verläuft, sollten Sie mode mit dem Prefix NULL (0) versehen:
<?php
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 755); // dezimal; möglicherweise falsch
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", "u+rwx,go+rx"); // String; falsch
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 0755); // oktal; richtiger Wert von mode
?>
Der mode Parameter besteht aus drei oktalen Nummernteilen, welche die Zugriffsbeschränkungen für den Eigentümer, die Benutzergruppe des Eigentümers, und allen anderen in dieser Reihenfolge spezifiziert. Eine Komponente kann mittels Addition derbenötigten Rechte für die gewünschten Benutzer berechnet werden. Die Zahl 1 bedeutet das Recht zum Ausführen, die Zahl 2 bedeutet das Recht zum Schreiben der Datei und mit der Zahl 4 machen Sie die Datei lesbar. Addieren Sie diese Zahlen, um die benötigten Rechte zu spezifizieren. Weitere Informationen zu den Modi finden Sie auf Unix Systemen mit 'man 1 chmod' and 'man 2 chmod'.
<?php
// Lesen und Schreiben für den Eigentümer, nichts für alle anderen
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 0600);
// Lesen und Schreiben für den Eigentümer, Lesen für alle anderen
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 0644);
// Alles für den Eigentümer, Lesen und Ausführen für andere
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 0755);
// Alles für den Eigentümer, Lesen und Ausführen für die
// Benutzergruppe des Eigentümers
chmod ("/somedir/somefile", 0750);
?>
Gibt bei Erfolg TRUE zurück. Im Fehlerfall wird FALSE zurückgegeben.
Hinweis:
Der aktuelle Benutzer ist der, unter dem PHP läuft. Das ist unter Umständen nicht der Benutzer, den Sie für normale Shell- oder FTP-Zugriffe benutzen.
Hinweis: Diese Funktion kann nicht mit entfernten Dateien arbeiten, da der Zugriff auf die Datei, die bearbeitet werden soll, über das Dateisystem des Servers möglich sein muss.
BEWARE, a couple of the examples in the comments suggest doing something like this:
chmod(file_or_dir_name, intval($mode, 8));
However, if $mode is an integer then intval( ) won't modify it. So, this code...
$mode = 644;
chmod('/tmp/test', intval($mode, 8));
...produces permissions that look like this:
1--w----r-T
Instead, use octdec( ), like this:
chmod(file_or_dir_name, octdec($mode));
See also: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.octdec.php
BEWARE using quotes around the second parameter...
If you use quotes eg
chmod (file, "0644");
php will not complain but will do an implicit conversion to an int before running chmod. Unfortunately the implicit conversion doesn't take into account the octal string so you end up with an integer version 644, which is 1204 octal
Apparently there is a way to emulate chmod on Windows:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.chmod.php#68384
http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=4
Apparently the way the above works is that Windows has file permissions and they are more complex. To access them, turn off (uncheck) Windows Explorer -> Tool menu -> File Options -> View -> Use simple sharing. Then right-click any file or folder, to access the Security tab. This is known as Windows ACL (access control layer?). You may turn on (check) Use simple sharing again after making any settings to Security and these settings will be retained. You may need to be logged on as a user in the Administrators group to access some permissions on some files, i.e. User Accounts in Control Panel and see Start menu -> Run -> lusrmgr.msc and gpedit.msc.
An improvement on the recursive chmod from nicolas@infosoft.... in July 2008. This is a little shorter and should handle all types of linux filesystem files.

Another converter from 'rwx' mode to octal, but considering the setuid/setgid and sticky bits, too. Also the reverse function, converts from octal to 'rwx' mode. Both ignore the leading 'd' or '-' since no directory nor file information is provided.
<?php
function ModeRWX2Octal($Mode_rwx) { // enter rwx mode, e.g. 'drwxr-sr-x'
if ( ! preg_match("/[-d]?([-r][-w][-xsS]){2}[-r][-w][-xtT]/", $Mode_rwx) )
die("wrong <TT>-rwx</TT> mode in ModeRWX2Octal('<TT>$Mode_rwx</TT>')");
$Mrwx = substr($Mode_rwx, -9); // 9 chars from the right-hand side
$ModeDecStr = (preg_match("/[sS]/",$Mrwx[2]))?4:0; // pick out sticky
$ModeDecStr .= (preg_match("/[sS]/",$Mrwx[5]))?2:0; // _ bits and change
$ModeDecStr .= (preg_match("/[tT]/",$Mrwx[8]))?1:0; // _ to e.g. '020'
$Moctal = $ModeDecStr[0]+$ModeDecStr[1]+$ModeDecStr[2]; // add them
$Mrwx = str_replace(array('s','t'), "x", $Mrwx); // change execute bit
$Mrwx = str_replace(array('S','T'), "-", $Mrwx); // _ to on or off
$trans = array('-'=>'0','r'=>'4','w'=>'2','x'=>'1'); // prepare for strtr
$ModeDecStr .= strtr($Mrwx,$trans); // translate to e.g. '020421401401'
$Moctal .= $ModeDecStr[3]+$ModeDecStr[4]+$ModeDecStr[5]; // continue
$Moctal .= $ModeDecStr[6]+$ModeDecStr[7]+$ModeDecStr[8]; // _ adding
$Moctal .= $ModeDecStr[9]+$ModeDecStr[10]+$ModeDecStr[11]; // _ triplets
return $Moctal; // returns octal mode, e.g. '2755' from above.
}
function ModeOctal2rwx($ModeOctal) { // enter octal mode, e.g. '644' or '2755'
if ( ! preg_match("/[0-7]{3,4}/", $ModeOctal) ) // either 3 or 4 digits
die("wrong octal mode in ModeOctal2rwx('<TT>$ModeOctal</TT>')");
$Moctal = ((strlen($ModeOctal)==3)?"0":"").$ModeOctal; // assume default 0
$Mode3 = substr($Moctal,-3); // trailing 3 digits, no sticky bits considered
$RWX = array ('---','--x','-w-','-wx','r--','r-x','rw-','rwx'); // dumb,huh?
$Mrwx = $RWX[$Mode3[0]].$RWX[$Mode3[1]].$RWX[$Mode3[2]]; // concatenate
if (preg_match("/[1357]/", $Moctal[0])) $Mrwx[8] = ($Mrwx[8]=="-")?"T":"t";
if (preg_match("/[2367]/", $Moctal[0])) $Mrwx[5] = ($Mrwx[5]=="-")?"S":"s";
if (preg_match("/[4567]/", $Moctal[0])) $Mrwx[2] = ($Mrwx[2]=="-")?"S":"s";
return $Mrwx; // returns e.g. 'rw-r--r--' or 'rwxr-sr-x'
}
?>
following test code returns the results below
<?php
$Mode = "-rw-rw-r--";
echo "<BR>ModeRWX2Octal(<TT>$Mode) -></TT> ".ModeRWX2Octal($Mode)."\n";
$Mode = "drwxr-sr-x";
echo "<BR>ModeRWX2Octal(<TT>$Mode) -></TT> ".ModeRWX2Octal($Mode)."\n";
$Mode = "644";
echo "<BR>ModeOctal2rwx($Mode) <TT>-> ".ModeOctal2rwx($Mode)."</TT>\n";
$Mode = "2755";
echo "<BR>ModeOctal2rwx($Mode) <TT>-> ".ModeOctal2rwx($Mode)."</TT>\n";
?>
ModeRWX2Octal(-rw-rw-r--) -> 0664
ModeRWX2Octal(drwxr-sr-x) -> 2755
ModeOctal2rwx(644) -> rw-r--r--
ModeOctal2rwx(2755) -> rwxr-sr-x
if you want to chmod directories too, use this
<?php
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($pathname), RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);
foreach($iterator as $item) {
chmod($item, $filemode);
}
?>
Just wanted to point out that the RecursiveIteratorIterator method below won't chmod directories, it only catches files. I haven't been able to find a way to change it so that it catches directories too yet.
Changes file mode recursive in $pathname to $filemode
<?php
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($pathname));
foreach($iterator as $item) {
chmod($item, $filemode);
}
?>
I use the code of haasje@welmers.net, but have a lite alteration. (linux symlink)
<?php
function chmod_R($path, $filemode) {
if (!is_dir($path))
return chmod($path, $filemode);
$dh = opendir($path);
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
if($file != '.' && $file != '..') {
$fullpath = $path.'/'.$file;
if(is_link($fullpath))
return FALSE;
elseif(!is_dir($fullpath))
if (!chmod($fullpath, $filemode))
return FALSE;
elseif(!chmod_R($fullpath, $filemode))
return FALSE;
}
}
closedir($dh);
if(chmod($path, $filemode))
return TRUE;
else
return FALSE;
}
?>
thanks alls
Note that info at rvgate dot nl's chmodnum function produces INCORRECT results. The resutls are base-10 numbers that only LOOK like they are octal numbers. The function also ignores setuid, setgid and sticky bits, and will produce incorrect numbers if such a file is encountered. Instead, this brute-force code works. Maybe there is something more slick, but this isn't too CPU-intensive (note that it assumes you've error-checked that you indeed have a 10-character string!):
<?php
$permissions = 'drwxr-xr-x'; // or whatever
$mode = 0;
if ($permissions[1] == 'r') $mode += 0400;
if ($permissions[2] == 'w') $mode += 0200;
if ($permissions[3] == 'x') $mode += 0100;
else if ($permissions[3] == 's') $mode += 04100;
else if ($permissions[3] == 'S') $mode += 04000;
if ($permissions[4] == 'r') $mode += 040;
if ($permissions[5] == 'w') $mode += 020;

else if ($permissions[6] == 's') $mode += 02010;
else if ($permissions[6] == 'S') $mode += 02000;
if ($permissions[7] == 'r') $mode += 04;
if ($permissions[8] == 'w') $mode += 02;
if ($permissions[9] == 'x') $mode += 01;
else if ($permissions[9] == 't') $mode += 01001;
else if ($permissions[9] == 'T') $mode += 01000;
printf('Mode is %d decimal and %o octal', $mode, $mode);

greate ftp newfolder=dir;
chmod --dir change 777;
<?php
$ftp_server='server';
$conn_id = ftp_connect("$ftp_server");
ftp_login($conn_id, user, password);
ftp_mkdir($conn_id, dir/dir);
ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD 777, dir/dir');
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>
Problem:
you are trying to circumvent SAFE_MODE setting that prevents you from using chmod() on files you uploaded via a regular ftp client, because php may run as user 'nobody', which is not the user from your ftp session.
using ini_set() won't work
using ftp_chmod() won't work either
Solution:
copy file to some temorary directory.
delete original file altogether.
copy temporary file back to original location.
do the chmod()
If you want to use a string for the second parameter, including user input, you MUST use octdec.

Here's a version that works with PHP 5.x - I use this to watermark images on a shared server.
<?php
// Connect to the FTP to chmod the file via FTP
$ftpUserName = 'username';
$ftpUserPass = 'userpass';
$ftpServer = 'ftp.example.com';
$ftpConn = ftp_connect($ftpServer);
if (!$ftpConn) {
die("Unable to connect to $ftpServer");
}
if (@ftp_login($conn_id, $ftpUserName, $ftpUserPass)) {
echo "Connected as $ftpUserName @ $ftpServer";
}
else {
echo "Couldn't connect as $ftpUserName";
ftp_close($ftpConn);
die("Closed connection to $ftpServer");
}
//Now change permissions to 666 or whatever you need
echo ftp_chmod($ftpConn, 0666, $ftpFilename) ? "CHMOD successful!" : 'Error';
// do what you need here
//Now change permissions back to 644 or whatever
echo ftp_chmod($ftpConn, 0644, $ftpFilename) ? "CHMOD successful!" : 'Error';
// Close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);

My PHP script refused to delete read-only files (which is probably a good thing), but I couldnt find out how to fix this on windows.
The solution is simple, i just replaced
<?php @unlink( $entry ); ?>
with:
<?php
@chmod( $entry, 0777 );
@unlink( $entry );
?>
chmod isnt supposed to work on windows, but 0777 seems to clear the read only flag, and 0444 seems to set the read only flag.
As you might have noticed there is a minor bug in webmaster at danopia dot 5gigs dot com's code:
You have to set $ftp_root variable outside the function chmod_open() and have to set it as global within the chmod_file() function.
With these patches the code really works fine. THX!
Ben
Thanks for your code, "imoldgreg at o2 dot co dot uk". I am using it for an instalation script that has to CHMOD a bunch of files. I have found it faster to use the same connectino for each, as shown below.
<?php
// Thanks to "imoldgreg at o2 dot co dot uk" for the base 'CHMOD via FTP' script.
function chmod_open()
{
// Use your own FTP info
$ftp_user_name = 'chmod@XXXXXXXXX.com';
$ftp_user_pass = 'XXXXXXXXXX';
$ftp_root = '/';
$ftp_server = 'localhost';
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
return $conn_id;
}
function chmod_file($conn_id, $permissions, $path)
{
if (ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD ' . $permissions . ' ' . $ftp_root . $path) !== false)
{
return TRUE;
}
else
{
return FALSE;
}
}
function chmod_close($conn_id)
{
ftp_close($conn_id);
}
// CHMOD the required setup files
// Connect to the FTP
$conn_id = chmod_open();
// CHMOD each file and echo the results
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/cache/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/files/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/store/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 766, 'master/config.php') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/images/avatars/upload/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
// Close the connection
chmod_close($conn_id);
?>
Here, the same FTP connection is used for each CHMOD command, making the execute time lower. This is essential for me, since my script is also copying a bunch of files.
an update to 'neil at 11 out of 10's code for changing mode using FTP.
changes: proper array added within the function (better for those of us who only need to connect to one ftp server) so only the mode and directory name need to be passed.
the octal added, for completeness and predictable stability.
<?php
function changemode($xcite)
{
$ftp_details = array(
ftp_user_name => 'username',
ftp_user_pass => 'password',
ftp_user_root => '/public_html/',
ftp_server => 'ftp.something.org'
);
$path = "public";
$mod = intval($xcite, 8);
// extract ftp details (array keys as variable names)
extract ($ftp_details);
// set up basic connection
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
// try to chmod $path directory
if (ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD '.$mod.' '.$ftp_root.$path) !== false) {
$success=TRUE;
}
else {
$success=FALSE;
}
// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
return $success;
}
?>
for those of you, like me, who were looking for a way to make an 'un-hackable' uploader, here's the closest i got, now for a field test, good luck!
The program mentioned below (CHMOD-Win) has been rewritten since, and CHMOD-Win version 3.0 is available for download at http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=4
It is a conversion utility for CHMOD on Windows and ACL on Linux, comes in handy for installing commercial scripts or defining security policies.
If you get a warning like chmod(): Operation not permitted in /home/folder/public_html/admin/includefiles/fileupload.php on line 24
You can use the ftp_site() function to send a CHMOD command through.
<?php
$ftp_details['ftp_user_name'] = $row['username'];
$ftp_details['ftp_user_pass'] = $row['password'];
$ftp_details['ftp_root'] = '/public_html/';
$ftp_details['ftp_server'] = 'ftp'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
function chmod_11oo10($path, $mod, $ftp_details)
{
// extract ftp details (array keys as variable names)
extract ($ftp_details);
// set up basic connection
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
// try to chmod $path directory
if (ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD '.$mod.' '.$ftp_root.$path) !== false) {
$success=TRUE;
}
else {
$success=FALSE;
}
// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
return $success;
}
?>
The key thing to remember is that the document root and the ftp root are not the same.
e.g. document root may be "/home/folder/public_html/"
but the ftp root might be "/public_html/"
Hope this helps someone. You might need this solution if you are on a shared server.
If you are storing your mode in a variable like
$mode = 0755;
you will run into the inevitable octal mode problem. An easy way around that is to use the octdec() function.
chmod("some_filename.ext", octdec($mode));
Usefull reference:
Value Permission Level
400 Owner Read
200 Owner Write
100 Owner Execute
40 Group Read
20 Group Write
10 Group Execute
4 Global Read
2 Global Write
1 Global Execute

If you cannot chmod files/directories with PHP because of safe_mode restrictions, but you can use FTP to chmod them, simply use PHP's FTP-functions (eg. ftp_chmod or ftp_site) instead. Not as efficient, but works.
When using ftp_rawlist, in order to get the chmod number from the attributes, i use this code:
<?php
function chmodnum($mode) {
$realmode = "";
$legal = array("","w","r","x","-");
$attarray = preg_split("//",$mode);
for($i=0;$i<count($attarray);$i++){
if($key = array_search($attarray[$i],$legal)){
$realmode .= $legal[$key];
}
}
$mode = str_pad($realmode,9,'-');
$trans = array('-'=>'0','r'=>'4','w'=>'2','x'=>'1');
$mode = strtr($mode,$trans);
$newmode = '';
$newmode .= $mode[0]+$mode[1]+$mode[2];
$newmode .= $mode[3]+$mode[4]+$mode[5];
$newmode .= $mode[6]+$mode[7]+$mode[8];
return $newmode;
}
?>
some examples:
drwxr-xr-x => 755
drwxr-xr-x => 755
dr-xr-xr-x => 555
drwxr-xr-x => 755

For recursive chmod'ing see the function below.
Only really usefull when chmod'ing a tree containing directories only, jet, since you don't want an executable bit on a regular file. Who completes the function so it's accepting strings like "g+w", and it's as usefull as unix "chmod -R" ? ;-)
<?php
function chmod_R($path, $filemode) {
if (!is_dir($path))
return chmod($path, $filemode);
$dh = opendir($path);
while ($file = readdir($dh)) {
if($file != '.' && $file != '..') {
$fullpath = $path.'/'.$file;
if(!is_dir($fullpath)) {
if (!chmod($fullpath, $filemode))
return FALSE;
} else {
if (!chmod_R($fullpath, $filemode))
return FALSE;
}
}
}
closedir($dh);
if(chmod($path, $filemode))
return TRUE;
else
return FALSE;
}
?>
As noted by others below... 1) you cannot pass a string to chmod() as the mode, and 2) decimals work as well as octals for the mode.
If you need to come up with the mode on the fly (maybe based on user input) and want to use something like:
$mode = '0'.$owner.$group.$public;
you can use your $mode (which is a string) with chmod like this:
<?php
// octal mode in a string i.e. '0755'
$mode = '0'.$owner.$group.$public;
$mode_dec = octdec($mode); // convert octal mode to decimal
chmod($filename, $mode_dec);
?>
about chmod,
Problably you have a local server to simulate your scripts before upload them to the server. No matter if you use Apache under windows or IIS , a chmod instruction like chmod($filename,O777) may not work because windows does not handle that kind of permission's format.
So being in your local server, if you have a only read file and you try to erase, it will show that you dont have permissions even when you have already executed your chmod instrucction correctly. Just up the script it must work well in your internet server if it is a linux machine
sobre chmod,
Probablemente usas un servidor local para probar tus scripts antes de subirlos al servidor en internet. No importa si usas Apache bajo windows o IIS, una instruccion como chmod(nombre_archivo,O777) podrá no trabajar por que windows no maneja esa estructura para definir los permisos.
Estando en tu servidor local, si tienes un archivo de solo lectura y tratas de borrarlo, se mostrará un error diciendo que no tienes permisos aún despúes de haber ejecutado chmod correctamente. Sube tu script, si tu servidor es una máquina linux, el script trabajará sin problemas en internet.

Well, you don't need octals.
You need a value that can easily computed and remembered if printed in octal.
511 (decimal) is the same as 777 (octal).
So it's the same wether you write
chmod("foo",511)
or
chmod("foo",0777)
The latter is just better readable.
If you have a mode as a string, chmod will insanely mess up your permissions. Instead of using
<?php
@chmod($file_or_dir_name, $mode);
?>
use
<?php
@chmod(file_or_dir_name, intval($mode, 8));
?>
where 8 -> the base to convert into. You need octals, baby, for chmod...
More on intval here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.intval.php
If you find that chmod does not work on your file and that a new file cannot be created, first try to chmod the directory where the file is being created to 0666/0777. Then PHP should be able to write/append files with mode 0644.
This function will chmod a $filename before writing to it if:
1 - It exists
2 - It is not writeable
3 - PHP has permission to chmod files
If PHP can't chmod, then the script will end. Otherwise it will attempt to write to a new file.
<?php
function file_write($filename, $flag, &$content) {
if (file_exists($filename)) {
if (!is_writable($filename)) {
if (!chmod($filename, 0666)) {
echo "Cannot change the mode of file ($filename)";
exit;
};
}
}
if (!$fp = @fopen($filename, $flag)) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
exit;
}
if (fwrite($fp, $content) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}
if (!fclose($fp)) {
echo "Cannot close file ($filename)";
exit;
}
}
?>
To convert 'rwxr-xr--' to a number representation of chmod, i use this:
<?php
function chmodnum($mode) {
$mode = str_pad($mode,9,'-');
$trans = array('-'=>'0','r'=>'4','w'=>'2','x'=>'1');
$mode = strtr($mode,$trans);
$newmode = '';
$newmode .= $mode[0]+$mode[1]+$mode[2];
$newmode .= $mode[3]+$mode[4]+$mode[5];
$newmode .= $mode[6]+$mode[7]+$mode[8];
return $newmode;
}
?>
In the previous post, stickybit avenger writes:
Just a little hint. I was once adwised to set the 'sticky bit', i.e. use 1777 as chmod-value...
Note that in order to set the sticky bit on a file one must use '01777' (oct) and not '1777' (dec) as the parameter to chmod:
<?php
chmod("file",01777); // correct
chmod("file",1777); // incorrect, same as chmod("file",01023), causing no owner permissions!
?>
Rule of thumb: always prefix octal mode values with a zero.
Just a little hint. I was once adwised to set the 'sticky bit', i.e. use 1777 as chmod-value. Do NOT do this if you don't have root privileges. When 'sticky bit' is set ONLY the fileuser can delete it afterwards, typically 'httpd' or something like that in case of an upload-script for example. I was unaware of this and actually had to make a script for deleting these files as I could not do this from ftp/ssh even though I did have read/write/execute access to both files and folders. Use simply '0777' or similiar.
[Editor's note:
That is due the fact Win32 systems treat premissions. You do not really have any other levels but read-only.

On WinME with apache chmod also works to a certain limit.
What happens is that apparently only the first number is counted, so 0666 (read-write) is the same as 0777, 0644, 0600, etc, and 0444 (read-only) is the same as 477, 400, etc.
..didn't test 0500 series
It does work on Windows.
I use Win 98 with the Sambar Server.
The only chmods allowed are the 775 and 666 mod. 775 for non-writeable and 666 for writeable. The only thing is that the usergroups doesn't work.
Note: the 0 at the start doesn't work with windows. use only the decimal kind.
Have fun :)
if 'mode' is held in a variable and is and octal value you need to convert it to decimal before passing it to the function:
chmod ($filename, octdec($mode))
Usually when you're trying to write to af file, you'll need to chmod the file to something like 666 or 755. You can use a command to chmod the file for you, which is especially useful when you're making a script where you're setting it up so that your users don't have to peform a bunch of actions to setup the script. When i wrote my news program script, I only had two files. install.php and config.php. All you had to do was chmod install.php to 666 and open it up in a web browser and answer a few questions. The script itself setup the rest of the files and chmodded them for you.
