[FX.php List] PHP File Permissions

[Jonathan Schwartz]

Check to see what the permissions might chnage to once you move the 
files to your local machine.  They would have to chnage in order to 
edit.

In my case, I exclusively use BBEdit to open and edit the files while 
they are still on the OS X Server.  That would mean that WRITE would 
have to be available, right?  The question is, what should the OWNER 
and GROUP be?  Is the GROUP "admin", as it is on my vanilla OS X 
Server?

Another intriguing question...Unbix permissions go "READ WRITE 
EXECUTE.  Where is the EXECUTE in the Mac READ/WRITE., READONLY,NONE 
set up?

Hmmm....
