FTP'ing to get directory listing

[Anon]

Hi

I am trying to create an administration system for my users. I am now trying to set up a script that will allow them to automatically password protect their directories on their site.

The script is run from my site, but i need to FTP into their base dir to get the file listing. I can get their username and password from MySQL using a cookie already set.

Any ideas how i could ftp in and get a listing of ONLY the directories?

Thanks
