php and making folders (mkdir)

[cloudee1]

I am able to create one level just fine, but I want to make two! This code creates one folder, but it just won't make that second folder inside the first.

Code: Select all

// Create a folder 
   $pagefolder=$_POST['pagefolder'];
   exec("mkdir $pagefolder"); 

// now place a folder in that folder.
   $url_images = $_POST['url_images'];
   $picfolder  = $pagefolder;
   $picfolder .='/';
   $picfolder .=$url_images;
   exec("mkdir $picfolder"); 

Does anyone know if this is even possible, and if so then how? I am not looking to set permissions or any other fanciness, just plain old folders.

I'm not sure, if anything change directories to the newly created one, create the second folder, then change back to the root folder.

This should do what you're after:

Code: Select all

mkdir -p firstdir/seconddir/thirddir

Or you could use php's mkdir() function in wich:
mkdir("test1/test2");
works just fine..
