Does anyone know a good way to protect a directory that a php script NEEDS
to write too?
What I'm doing now:
1. create a directory manually "myDir"
2. chmod 777 myDir
3. password protect the directory with htaccess
Is this the best way, or is there something better?
You could chmod the file/directory to 700 and change the owner to that
of the webserver (presumably the script is being run via the webserver).
This has the drawback that anything run from the webserver will have
write access to the files.
