Ok, I am stuck.  I am trying to create a folder in the same directory as process.php and then use move_uploaded_file($FILES['myImage]['tmp_name']) and it constantly fails:

mkdir() failed (Permission denied) 

Here is my code:

<?
  $willChangeLayout = 1; $isEmptyLayoutValues = 1;

  foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) {
   if (strcmp($key, "isDefaultLayout") == 0) $willChangeLayout = 0;
   if (!empty($_POST[$key])) $isEmptyLayoutValues = 0;
   ${"$key"} = $val;   
  }

  // SERVER-SIDE VALIDATION
  if ($willChangeLayout && $isEmptyLayoutValues)
   header("Location: " . $refURL . "?errorMsg=" . urlencode("Please fill out all required fields"));

  // FILE UPLOAD HANDLING

  $attempt = mkdir("/users/ppowell/web/my/images", 0655);

  if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['myImage']['tmp_name'])) 
   move_uploaded_file($_FILES['myImage']['tmp_name'], "/users/ppowell/web/my/images/" . $_FILES['myImage']['name']);

   
?>

Please someone tell me what I'm doing wrong :(

Thanx
Phil
