Chris asked:
Is there a way to use a php FTP function to FTP the file out of the
buffer to a directory on the server, or some other way to write a file
to a folder without making that folder 0777?
What about changing the folder's permission to 0777 during the
operation and then changing it back after? That's what I have to do
with my virtual host.
The following is a demo I wrote that you might want to review.

// how to call the function
<?php
$ftp_path = "public_html/rw/"; // note the ftp path
$theDir = "tmp";
$theFile ="text.txt";
FtpPerms($ftp_path, $theDir, $theFile);
?>
// the function
<?php
// create directory and change perms via FTP connection
function FtpPerms($path, $theDir, $theFile)
{
$server='ftp.yourdomain.com'; // ftp server
$connection = ftp_connect($server); // connection
$user = "you";
$pass = "yourpassword";
$result = ftp_login($connection, $user, $pass); // login to ftp server
if ((!$connection) || (!$result))
{
echo("No connection<br/>");
return false;
exit();
}
else
{
echo("Made connection<br/>");
ftp_chdir($connection, $path); // go to destination dir
echo("Change Perms<br/>");
$str="CHMOD 0755 " . $theDir; // change perms for dir (note the space
after 0775 )
ftp_site($connection, $str);
echo("$str<br/>");
$filename = "$theDir/$theFile";
$contents = "This is the contents of the file.";
echo("<hr><br/>Writing file <br/><br/>");
$file = fopen( $filename, "w" );
fwrite( $file, $contents);
fclose( $file );
chmod($filename,0777);
echo("Change Perms<br/>");
$str="CHMOD 0600 " . $theDir; // change perms back for dir
ftp_site($connection, $str);
echo("$str<br/>");
echo("Close connection<br/>");
ftp_close($connection); // close connection
}
}
?>
