As far as I know, it's not a shared hosting issue, but a permission issue. The site admin has not given the user under which your php scripts run permission to create directories and most likely files and other file system operations. It's a security issue.

Hi, I'm using Shared Hosting and I was told - then I learned from trial and error - that you can't use mkdir on Shared Hosting... is this *100%* true? is there a way around it? I get: Warning: mkdir(/home/***/public_html/test/): Permission denied in /home/***/public_html/test.php on line 3 So, again, is there any possible way around this? I've Googled, read the manual but it seems that If I don't get an Error - I get nothing at all, including the directory.
