PHP FTP

Demonstration of File downloading

In the previous page we looked at the RETR command that is used to retrieve files from the remote server. In this page we will try it out. First we will log in and obtain a directory listing, as we did in the first part of this article. The difference here is that when you click on any of the files in the listing, it will be downloaded to your computer.

How to send the correct HTTP headers so that file->save as dialog box appears on both windows and linux has been covered in a related article named directory browsing with php.
