FTP controlled by PHP

[lorri]

I would like to ask:

Is there any FTP freeware can be controlled by PHP?

For example, I use PHP to create a folder in localhost somewhere(e.g. D:\web\file), then I want to use the FTP freeware to transfer files in this folder, how can I put the path (D:\web\file) in the FTP remote path by PHP? Is this impossible?

You can use the [man]FTP[/man] functions in PHP to connect to FTP servers and use FTP.

I believe some people have actually implemented FTP clients in PHP, while others (myself included) have used it for web-based webhosting interfaces.
