File permissions is beyond the scope of this mailing list. You need
to buy a book, research on the web, etc., on *nix system

sections, and the section on how apps/daemons operate.

John:
My question basically was "why isn't chmod() working for me?" So, I
thought it might be a question to pose to a php mailing list -- my
mistake, sorry.
chmod() is working the way it's supposed to. You're not getting the
results you desire, and to understand why, you need to understand how
file ownership and permissions work on a *nix system.
PS: 0777 -- so you never go to extremes, or press limits, to try to
solve a problem?
Not when it will compromise the security of my system. There is always
another way to solve the problem.
