major problem

Firefly, I just found out that the 559 members that I imported into my albums cannot use it. Why? In the other software after registration they get a confirm email. By clicking on that email, then they create themselves a folder which is chmod 777.

I might have to manually create 559 folders unless I find myself a command to do so.

Is there a way to automate that task? by selecting all username from db and mkdir("directorypath/$username", 0777);

I am sorry about the other post. I clicked on new instead of reply. I did not mean to create two threads. Anyway, disregard it because it works.

It works? good.

the link that you gave me the other day about php... these people are great. They posted about 8 lines of code for me and I was able to in 10 seconds to create all 559 folders. And mkdir at new registration takes care of the new comers. .

I have one last thing to do and I am done: recompile php with gd support. Since I am learning as I am going, I had rather find myself someone to do it for me so I do not mess things up, specially I could not find a folder apache-1.3.19 mentionned in phpinfo with the configure that I am supposed to run at the command line. I looked all over for those.
