How do I create a Folder called "My Folder" in Android when the User presses a Button?

Question

I want the App to Create a Folder in the SD card, when the user presses the button.

I added the Manifest Code:

Here is My Java Code:

public void onClick(View v) {

                File path = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+File.separator+"Naya");
                if (!path.exists()) {
                    path.mkdir();
                        // do something                        
                }
            }

No Folder gets Created and it shows "mkdir() is ignored". Thank You.

Did you add these to your manifest?

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
