problems when writing a file

[Anon]

hi all

i got the following problems:

1.
i want to write data from an mysql database into some files and when i didi that, i want to write the files in a webspace...
i am useing this code:

    $fp = fopen("ftp://user:[e-mail]/veranstaltungen/".$daten[$x]["id"].".html","w+b");
    fwrite($fp, $return);
    fclose($fp);

the array $daten... creates only the name of the file, it works good...
$return is the string with the data to write

the script works when the file that i want to create doesn't exist. if they exist, there is this error:
...blabla... file already exists ...blabla...

how can i solve that?

the next problem occurs when i try to wirte a bigger number of files. at first i got an error, that the script is only allowed to process 30 sec, so i fill (set_time_limit(600)😉 in and it works. but after a certain time i got an error which says that the this cgi-process is not allowed to work that long...
i am using the ms-iis and i do not know how to strech this time! for iis, if any know do know that, i also want to know how i can give the php script the rights to create files, i only can change the content, but not create other...

Forget all about using fopen for FTP, use the FTP functions.

thnaks a lot, this is really a better solution, cause the connection must set up only one time...

but i got another problem:

error opening Resource id#

when i used this code:

$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$destination_file = "filename.html";
$tmp_source_file = tmpfile();
fwrite($tmp_source_file, $return);
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $tmp_source_file, FTP_ASCII);
fclose($tmp_source_file);
ftp_quit($conn_id);

and how can i stretch the time, iis permit php to process one script?
