Java script error in my cpanel being recognised by my admin panel

I am getting an error in my admin panel to my website and therefore it wont let me compile my changes that I am making to other pages. In my cpanel, I have located the area of the error, but I am not very good at java script. Can someone please look at this cpanel script to see what is wrong:

PHP Code:

---

{
        $resKeysStrings = db_res("
            SELECT    `LocalizationKeys`.`Key` AS `Key`,
                    `LocalizationStrings`.`String` AS `String`
            FROM    `LocalizationStrings` INNER JOIN
                    `LocalizationKeys` ON
                    `LocalizationKeys`.`ID` = `LocalizationStrings`.`IDKey`
            WHERE `LocalizationStrings`.`IDLanguage` = {$arrLanguage['ID']}");
        
        $handle = fopen("{$dir['root']}langs/lang-{$arrLanguage['Name']}.php", 'w');
             
                                if($handle === false) return false;
        
        $fileContent = "<?{$newLine}\$LANG = array(";
        
        while($arrKeyString = mysql_fetch_assoc($resKeysStrings))
        {
            $langKey = str_replace("\\", "\\\\", $arrKeyString['Key']);
            $langKey = str_replace("'", "\\'", $langKey);
            
            $langStr = str_replace("\\", "\\\\", $arrKeyString['String']);
            $langStr = str_replace("'", "\\'", $langStr);
            
            $fileContent .= "{$newLine}\t'$langKey' => '$langStr',";
        }

The following is the admin panel error message:

Warning: fopen(/home/sexiestf/public_html/langs/lang-English.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/sexiestf/public_html/inc/languages.inc.php on line 159
Language file(s) has NOT been compiled due to an error.

That's not JavaScript. That's PHP.

The first thing to do is to go and
1) check that "/home/sexiestf/public_html/langs/lang-English.php" exists.
2) check what permissions are set for the file (if you're using cPanel, they'll be somewhere)
3) If the permissions are set to (d*mn, I've forogtten the permission settings, but I think it's) 755, Look at the php settings (if you can't access them directly, make a page like this:

PHP Code:

---

<?php
  phpinfo();
?>

---

Look for anything which may stop you opening files (I'm in a web cafe currently, so I can't look things up easily)
4) Try a relative path. Here I'm assuming it's to do with the path you using. If you're call from inc/languages.php, then try:

PHP Code:

---

fopen("../langs/lang-{$arrLanguage['Name']}.php", 'w'); 


---

Hope that helps.

PHP's fopen is highly restricted when PHP is running in safe mode. I would check to see if it is first. Then worry about it being other problems.
