WordPress Media Gallery

For the WordPress Media Gallery to work properly on a server, PHP Safe Mode must be turned off.  From what I am told when PHP Safe mode is on, PHP runs as a different user than apache and this causes folder creation/modification problems.  So for the uploader to work it must be turned off.

Also I have noticed some issue in the past with the flash uploader and it displaying HTTP Errors.  I have found that if the server is protected by 401 Authentication this happens.  I am sure that there are other problems that cause this, but this is the first fix I have found in my troubleshooting.
