Hi there
I'm trying to create a directory with flags drwxrwxrwx .
I think this should create it:

mkdir("./tmp",0777);

but it creates a directory drwxr_xr_x tmp
anyone can tell me where am I wrong?

mkdir() ANDs your umask against mode. So make your umask a non-factor in the permission bits you pass to mkdir() by calling umask() beforehand with all bits turned off:

umask(0);
