I have installed phpformgenerator but can 't seem to get it to generate a form. I get a list of chmod errors. I have changed the permissions, run it and get the same errors. When I go back and check the chmod settings they've been protected again. I did notice this error in the list of chmod errors. Warning: mkdir(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 595 is not allowed to access Could my problem be due to SAFE MODE and if so how do I solve it?

You can turn safe_mode off for the domain running the script.
The last time we did that for a client with his own server, the specific site, and one other site without a hardened directory structure, was hacked.
We don't recommend allowing safe_mode off, for obvious reasons.
If you're going to allow it, you need to make sure that httpd doesn't have write rights to any files or directories on the entire server except the one you want your program to be able to write in.
Again, we don't recommend it.

The error message says the problem is with safe_mode being on.
Either that's the cause of the error or the program is lying to you.
Not having written the program, I can only guess as to which is correct.
If indeed that's the error you can't work around it, because safe_mode is designed to protect a server against insecure scripts and hackers.
