Name
umask
Synopsis
int umask([int mask
])
Sets PHP’s default permissions to the value
mask
&
0777
and returns the previous mask if successful, or
false
if an error occurred. The
previous default permissions are restored at the end of the current
script. If mask
is not supplied, the
current permissions are returned.
When running on a multithreaded web server (e.g., Apache), use
chmod()
after creating a file to
change its permissions, rather than this function.
