Running this function on a directory ensures that the directory doesn’t exist. If the directory doesn’t exist it is created. Will work recursively as well so if neither the directory specified or it’s parent exists, both are created. By : metcarob function Ensure_Sub_Directory_Exists($dir) { //When passed a directory create it if (substr($dir,-1) == "\\") $dir = substr($dir,0,strlen($dir)-1); if (file_exists($dir)) return TRUE; $a = explode("\\",$dir); while ($t = each($a)) { $b = $t['value']; }; $b = str_replace("\\" . $b,"",$dir); //does $b exist? if (!file_exists($b)) { Ensure_Sub_Directory_Exists($b); }; //PArent exists so make this directork exist mkdir($dir); return TRUE; }; | DISCLAIMER: The content provided in this article is not warranted or guaranteed by Developer Shed, Inc.
