For starters, I don't know much about php, but I hope that my issue does not require much knowledge in this area. I downloaded a script to create an image gallery. The owner wrote that it is easy to install, etc., etc. Everything does seem as though it will be easy to install except that they say "Chmod the folder (where all the images are) to 777". I don't know how to do this. Do I need extensive knowledge of php to be able to do this? Do I need to be working in Linux or Unix? If no to both of the above, can someone explain how to "cmod a folder to 777"?
Thank you
