problems with msg folder and mod 777 setting

[puniksem]

I've searched for an answer here but found nothing, so I ask you...

My service providers recently stopped file permissions being set to 777.
However one can set 777 to the msg folder.

The problem I have is that all *.html's saved by the script are set to 600 making it impossible for users to view posted messages.

Can you offer me a code snippet that I could add to mboard.php so it would mod the html files to 644? Then everything would work.

Thanks in advance

Files shouldn't be on 777 anyway (unless it's for example a Perl script, but those usually need 755).

You can try adding

Code: Select all

chmod($newfile, 0644);

just below

Code: Select all

unset($footer);

and see if that helps.

Thank you Klemen very much, that worked a treat, now my worries are over.

You're the best and your scripts are second to none.
One day you will be rewarded for your generosity and hard work.
