Recursive chmod in PHP

<?
   /**
      Chmods files and folders with different permissions.
 
      This is an all-PHP alternative to using: \n
      <tt>exec("find ".$path." -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;");</tt> \n
      <tt>exec("find ".$path." -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;");</tt>

      @param $path An either relative or absolute path to a file or directory
      which should be processed.
      @param $filePerm The permissions any found files should get.
      @param $dirPerm The permissions any found folder should get.
      @return Returns TRUE if the path if found and FALSE if not.
      @warning The permission levels has to be entered in octal format, which
      normally means adding a zero ("0") in front of the permission level. \n
