Hello,

and download all the files within the directory.

Once i have a socket opened and put all the files in the directory in an array
how can i download the file(s).

Use php ftp functions

http://www.phpbuilder.com/manual/function.ftp-get.php

[lnfreish]

you can also use fopen, such as:

<?php

$file = "http://www.domain.com/dir/file.zip"; // the dest file you want to download
$localPath  = "c:/download"; // where the downloaded files save
$filename = basename($file);   //get filename

$filestream = 1024; // bytes

// open remote file handle
$fp1 = fopen($file,"rb");

//create local file
$fp2 = fopen("$localPath/$filename","ab");

//read remote file and write data to your local file
while (!feof($fp1)) {
     $output = fread($fp1,$filestream);
     fputs($fp2,$output);
}

//close file handles
fclose($fp1);
fclose($fp2);

echo "job finished!";
?>

NOTICE: you must ensure your "allow_url_fopen = On" at your php.ini
