title: MKDIR is not working correctly?
body: <p>i'm using Xampp. When I tried to do this earlier, it worked, but now it is not working.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to make a directory in my www folder to hide it from baddies who steal files.</p>
  
  <p>Each user gets their own folder in uploads to put their files on.</p>
  
  <p>Xampp uses apache, and Xampp is a local web server. It allows me to design websites without the need of an online host. The www folder is in my C:\program files\xampp\php\www\ and I need to make a directory there. I know it's possible because i've done this before, I have just forgotten how to make it happen.</p>
  
  <p>When I make a directory I use: </p>
  
  <p>$uploaddir1 = "xampp/php/www/uploads/".$esclcusername."/";
  mkdir($uploaddir1,0777);</p>
  
  <p>Do I need to include C:\program files\ before xampp?</p>
  
  <p>And finally, how would this be possible on a real online web host?</p>
