One thing is simply to have some documentation if this is for the public,
and to let them know that the root folder must be chmodded to 777.

Then, after every directory you create, chmod the directory and any files
the way you want to. You just have to use the chmod() function found here:

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.chmod.php

Hope this helps, and was what you were looking for.
