How do i set permissions for files on the server?
I am trying to set up polls using php but it writes to text files or something and i need to set the permissions on these files to 666. I'm a newbie when it comes to php and anything other than html so thanks for the help in advance.

If you're using Windows, you should ignore all the chmod instructions provided in the scripts installation guides. These have meaning only on Unix systems. Please search for "chmod" of these forums for more details.

I'm on windows and the script im using wont write to the text files, so would this have something to do with the script or can it be used only on a unix system?

As we already said, on Windows you can ignore file permissions. Your scripts will run without any problems.
If you want to write-protect a file, you can still do it using the Windows Exporer (right click on the file, select properties, and check Read-only).
