Hello,
Getting the subject error when I hit the upload files button in the files & images/upload tab.

I am simply trying to get a flash .swf, an .xml file and some images to upload. I can upload all this manually via ftp but the only way I can get SS to see some of these files after upload is by going back and forth between the site content and files and images tabs (found this workaround elsewhere on this site). This is not working for the .xml or .swf for some reason.

On another thread someone suggested changing permissions. I am not a developer but am really good at copying and pasting the development of others! If someone could tell me exactly what code, in what file/folder to change I'd be really grateful - I am a mere designer abandoned by her flake-oid developer!

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!! Here is the full error:

[Warning] copy(/home/www/sites_on_nfs/public/radimage/htdocs/assets/xml/chibetiba.jpg) [function.copy]:

You might want to check the permissions on the assets folder. Your webserver user (apache or www-data) will need to be able to read / write the directly. You can fix this by running something like chmod -R 666 on the assets folder (Read + Write recursively). You should be able to fix this using your FTP program under permissions.
