download directory onto C drive

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I am attempting (if this is possible) to write a routine to automatically dump the contents of a directory on the server into a directory on the local C drive.

I started out like this :

Code: $conn_id = ftp_connect($myurl);
$login_successful = ftp_login($conn_id, $id, $password);
if ($login_successful) {
echo '<H2>Download underway ...'.PHP_EOL;
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, $the_appropriate_path);
foreach ($contents as $file) {
echo $file.'<BR>'.PHP_EOL;
}



And this does exactly as expected, it lists all the files in the directory on the server !


Now I have to dump them onto my C drive. Is this possible using ftp_get, or do I have to use some other way ?
