The ftp_chdir() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to change the current directory on the FTP server.
Syntax:
ftp_chdir( $ftp_connection, $directory )
Parameter: This function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- $ftp_connection: It is required parameter. It specifies the already existing FTP connection to use for execution of FTP commands or functions.
- $directory: It is required parameter. It specifies the path in remote server to which current directory to be changed.
Return Value: It returns True on success or False on failure.
Note:
- This function is available for PHP 4.0.0 and newer version.
- The following examples cannot be run on online IDE. So try to run in some PHP hosting server or localhost with a proper ftp server name, user and password.
- Make sure you have permission to change directory and access to the directory.
Example:
php
<?php// Connect to FTP server// Use a correct ftp server$ftp_server = "localhost";// Use correct ftp username$ftp_username="username";// Use correct ftp password corresponding// to the ftp username$ftp_userpass="password"; // Establishing ftp connection $ftp_connection = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die("Could not connect to $ftp_server");if($ftp_connection) { echo "successfully connected to the ftp server!"; // Logging in to established connection with // ftp username password $login = ftp_login($ftp_connection, $ftp_username, $ftp_userpass); if($login) { // Checking whether logged in successfully or not echo "<br>logged in successfully!"; // ftp_chdir() changing current directory to "htdocs" // remember, you must have folder that will use inside // current directory of ftp server. // Here htdocs folder exists in ftp server inside // base or root directory if (ftp_chdir($ftp_connection, "htdocs")) { echo "<br>Current directory successfully changed to htdocs."; } else { echo "<br>Error while changing current directory."; } } else { echo "<br>login failed!"; } // Closing connection if(ftp_close($ftp_connection)) { echo "<br>Connection closed Successfully!"; } }?> |
