Copying PHP Files

wrongforum

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could help me, im trying to make a php script which copies files from one folder and makes a new folder on the same server and places the copied files into this new folder.

I have tried the copy($source, $destination) method but that doesnt seem to work, any ideas?

Thanks.

Could you elaborate on "desont seem to work"? Errors?

Make sure your paths are correct and you have write permissions in the destination directory (and if you are overwriting a file, you need write permissions on it as well).

yes, the permissions are fine and so are the paths but i dont think the copy feature lets u make a new folder does it? if so how would i get a php script to give the new directory permissions

Use the mkdir function. http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php
