as long as the webserver can write to the dir you setup for the files (outside 
of
the web root and NOT the real /home preferably, see the install/security HOWTO) 
it
will create dirs as needed.  For group access you need to edit the group and 
click
the little blue box in the ACL column next to phpWebHosting to define the group
access.

Now for sitemrg, I created a sitemgr group and added my sitemgr anon user to 
have
read access to the group and grant access to phpWebHosting to the anon user.  
Then I
can upload files under the group dir and copy the url to put on my sitemgr 
pages as
img's and hrefs.

you /could/ make a link from the phpWH dirs to the website and just refernce the
urls, but then you'd have a world writable dir that's fully publicly accessable.
through phpWH the files is passed though raw, including php and perl files, so
nothing can be script/cgi executed.
