How to create a folder using mkdir on username of a user?

I want to get a folder created on username of user logged in and then make that folder upload path for files. Can't find a way to do that. Tried something like this but failed. I get a error for mkdir line.

syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting ')' 

$username=$_SESIION['user'];
mkdir('./uploads/images/'.$username, 0777);
$upload_path = "./uploads/images/".$username;
Solution

  • Try this code:-

    $username=$_SESIION['user'];
mkdir("./uploads/images/$username", 0777, true);
$upload_path = "./uploads/images/$username";

    You should also set 'recursive' flag 'true' as third argument in mkdir() function.

    Hope it will work for you :)
