problem with touch() in safe mode

[cilverphox]

if (!file_exists($dir))
    mkdir($dir, 0777);

if(is_writeable($dir))
{
    touch($filepath);
    chmod($filepath,0644);
} 

Warning: touch(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 22747 is not allowed to access /home/virtual/site54/fst/home/.../My Album owned by uid 48.

Is there a way around this? The directory is created without flaw. However, I can't create a file.

try setting the permissions on the folder to 777. There should be an option on your ftp program for this

He already has the folder chmodded to 777.

I don't think there is a way around it. Talk to your host.
