note 69267 added to function.mkdir

Just a small addition to Han Van den Hoof's ftp script which is really useful for scripts on shared servers. I added a chmod command. This is necessary if you want to access the directory later via script. I also fixed the small bug with the 2 variables connection & conn_id ;) And last not least ftp connection is closed even if ftp commands fail. Sometimes ftp login will fail due to bad luck. Therefore one should add a loop for retrying. <?php // create directory through FTP connection function FtpMkdir($path, $newDir) { $server='ftp.yourserver.com'; // ftp server $connection = ftp_connect($server); // connection // login to ftp server $user = "me"; $pass = "password"; $result = ftp_login($connection, $user, $pass); // check if connection was made if ((!$connection) || (!$result)) { return false; exit(); } else { if (!ftp_chdir($connection, $path)) { // go to destination dir $r = false; } else if (!ftp_mkdir($connection,$newDir)) { // create directory $r = false; } else if (!ftp_site($connection, "CHMOD 0777 $newDir") { // change attributes $r = false; } else { $r = $newDir; } } ftp_close($connection); // close connection return $r; } ?> ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 129.13.186.1 (proxied: 172.20.69.18) ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69267 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69267 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69267 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
