# mkdir

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

mkdir -- Makes directory

## Description

int mkdir ( string pathname, int mode)

Attempts to create the directory specified by pathname.

Note that you probably want to specify the mode as an octal number, which means it should have a leading zero. The mode is also modified by the current umask, which you can change using umask().

    mkdir ("/path/to/my/dir", 0700);

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure.

See also rmdir().
