peace,

Thanks for the reply, I would if i knew how...

Would you be able to explain in a bit more depth?

I know how to get into all the files etc... via ftp..

But not how to Change to 777 CHMOD " or whatever that means,"

What FTP program are you using?

For most of them you right click on the file, and go to "properties" or "chmod" or something like that, and it wil come up with a menue where you can either type in a 3 digit number or check 9 different boxes.
Either type in 777 or check all 9 boxes.

Also, if you have cPanel, you can click on the file in the file manager and then click on the change permissions link, again- type 777 or check all the boxes :)

That should get you strait:)

Thanks, Ill Try The Cpanel...

Then if not, I will get back to you,

I am using ws_ftp for my ftp program thanks again

Ah, ws_ftp!
Good program.

Even if you are able to do it in cPanel, I would recomend learning how to do it in ws_ftp, as you will need to use this action a lot, especially for a auction script :D

Hello... lol

I did look into the Cpanel, It does not seem to be letting me anything, I would " Prefer to Learn in FTP " Yes i like the program a lot..

So would it be possible for you to teach me how to MOD this Script then? :-)

Thanks

Well you dont really need to MOD the script, as it wont work then :)
If you are using the old free WS_FTP_LE then right click on the file and in the menu that pops up, click on " CHMOD (UNIX) "

I found a page that has a nice tutorial for this too:

Thank You
