#27024 problem with writable
suppose I wanted to update simple download count. I don't want to use database as it is overkill. I try to use php update the txt file but it keep failed.
I make a folder called as "count" and make the permission 777 but it keeps return to 775, hence I'm not able to write any file, what I did wrong? :
