[PHP] rec_copy

[jtjohnston]

You might have seen a version of this function:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.copy.php

I would like to rework this line:

          mkdir($to_path, 0777);

where mkdir will ignore $to_path if
the directory already exists. I have already tried this:

#if(!mkdir($to_path, 0777))
# {mkdir($to_path, 0777);}

but that doesn't work. I suppose that is because the
function calls itself when it creates sub-directories.

Any ideas?
