   Hi,

   I am using wordpress to create a site and am trying to implement an upload form where customers can upload their own image to our database. As part of the code I am using the mkdir() function to create an uploads directory. Like this:

   mkdir($dir_name) or die("Could not create directory " . $dir_name);

   However, I am getting the following error:
   

   Could not create directory http://www.tommy-barker.com/coi/wp-content/themes/change/upload/11042009

   Does anybody have any idea what the problem is? I thought maybe it was something to do with wordpress but I have tried it outside of wordpress and get the same error.

   Thanks

   -John

   possible the directory has already been created . before you try to make it test to see if it exists already .

   if ( ! is_dir($dir_name) )
   	mkdir($dir_name) or die("Could not create directory " . $dir_name);
