PHP - Moved: File Ownership And Using Php File Commands

This is probably a trivial task to most of you, but I can't for the life of me
figure out how to do this.

I want to write a script that will open an image directory, go through
each of the images inside and change their permissions, owner and group.

Thanks in advance.

Awhile ago I wrote a simple form to except image specific uploads from users and chmoded the directory to 777... worked great...

Till there was a hack and then I found that chmod 777 is bad

So changed the folder to 775, but now the upload script won't work.

Can somebody point me to a post or article on how to give a file ownership or group permissions so it can safely run its uploads to the folder?

I have tried google but keep getting Linux and Window OS results.. its a tough question to google.

Any help is very much appreciated.

how to get the name of the file including a file from the included file,

This one has me mixed up a bit.. I am trying to record site activity information from a common.php file using a user object. But since the file is included into different php files based on different situations I need a dynamic way of finding the file name that is including it. I could be over complicating things but right now this seems like the best solution other wise I'll have to rewrite the code on every page i write. Is there a function for doing this? Or if someone gets what I'm trying to do if they could point me to the direction of some more information on it.

Thanks.
