Hi Darwin,
What i am really looking for is to write a ftp script which would accept the following parameters
Server
Userid
LocalFilePath
RemoteFilePath
FTPType - whether binary or ascii
FileChecker - if set to "Y" and if the file is empty do not FTP the file
if set to "N" , ftp the file even if the file is empty
FileName1
FileName2
FileName3
.
.
.
This is how i plan to do
shift 6
File_count = "$#" total count of files to be FTP'ed
File_list = "$@" total files that may be FTP'ed
If FileChecker is set to "Y" run a loop to ignore the files which are empty and thus prepare a new file list
So if i pass 3 files as parameter abc.txt , pqr.txt and xyz.txt and assuming pqr.txt is an empty file and the file_checker is set to "Y"
File_list would be abc.txt pqr.txt xyz.txt
New_File_List would be abc.txt xyz.txt
I would then use this new_file_list , open an ftp connection and transfer all the files using mput.
I am not good at unix commands.
Please let me know if there is a better, much simpler way to do the above piece of code.
Thanks,
Sam

LEARN ABOUT PHP
rawurlencode
RAWURLENCODE(3) 1 RAWURLENCODE(3)
rawurlencode - URL-encode according to RFC 3986
SYNOPSIS
string rawurlencode (string $str)
DESCRIPTION
Encodes the given string according to RFC 3986.
PARAMETERS
o $str
- The URL to be encoded.
RETURN VALUES
Returns a string in which all non-alphanumeric characters except -_.~ have been replaced with a percent ( %) sign followed by two hex dig-
its. This is the encoding described in RFC 3986 for protecting literal characters from being interpreted as special URL delimiters, and for
protecting URLs from being mangled by transmission media with character conversions (like some email systems).
Note
Prior to PHP 5.3.0, rawurlencode encoded tildes ( ~) as per RFC 1738.
CHANGELOG
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
|Version | |
| | |
| | Description |
| | |
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
| 5.3.4 | |
| | |
| | Tilde characters are no longer encoded when |
| | rawurlencode(3) is used with EBCDIC strings. |
| | |
| 5.3.0 | |
| | |
| | Now conforms to RFC 3986. |
| | |
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
EXAMPLES
Example #1
including a password in an FTP URL
<?php
echo '<a href="ftp://user:', rawurlencode('foo @+%/'),
'@ftp.example.com/x.txt">';
?>
The above example will output:
<a href="ftp://user:foo%20%40%2B%25%2F@ftp.example.com/x.txt">
Or, if you pass information in a PATH_INFO component of the URL:
Example #2
rawurlencode(3) example 2
<?php
echo '<a href="http://example.com/department_list_script/',
rawurlencode('sales and marketing/Miami'), '">';
?>
The above example will output:
<a href="http://example.com/department_list_script/sales%20and%20marketing%2FMiami">
