Problem is something like this. Some web applications written in php
change permissions of some files and directories so I can't remove them
if I don't change permissions to write those files and dir's. I can do
that by making a php file with code :

<?php
chmod ("dir-or-file", 0777);
?>

and send it to server and point browser to that file.After that I can
remove the file or directory but the problem is: sometimes there are
ten's maybe hundred's of files to change and remove.It take's a lifetime
to change permissions one by one so what is the code to change
permissions recursively to all subdirectories and files.

I hope my english is understandable :)
