PHP uploading files to a protected (.htaccess) area

[csbdeady]

Hi there

I've protected something like mysite.com/subdir/ with .htaccess

In mysite.com/myfile.php I have a line which uploads a file to mysite.com/subdir/ .

When I run the PHP program I get:

Warning: Unable to create 'mysite.com/subdir/buscard10.PDF': Permission denied in /var/

http://www/html/www.mysite.com/myfile.php

on line 201
Problem: Could not move file into directory

Line 201 does the upload (as you can guess from the above).

How do I a username and password in myfile.php to allow access to this protected directory?

Thanks!
-Colin

Are you uploading or are you moving the file? If the latter, change the permissions of subdir to 777, or at least write permissions for the user Apache runs as. //Daniel
