File selection for ftp download.

[rodsgill]

Hi,
I have got a web page to display the files on my ftp server but i can't get to grips on how to select a file for download
using the mouse in php of course.
As you can probably guess this is all new to me. 😕 so any help would be gratefully received.

Well just a pointer in the right direction will do.
I have gone through the php manual put i can't find an instruction that will create a link from a file name.

Here is the code in case any other learner needs it.

echo "<a href=scriptName.php?id=$i>".$fList[$i]."</a><br>";

scriptName.php is the name of the file the code is in.
this should create a link a with GET ID on your script get the ID using GET and then download it.

Got the help i needed from http://www.phphelp.com
