I've got my own domain, ftp etc.. I'm using cPanel and I want to download a file periodically, every say 24 hours.
I've used this command:
^no spaces offcourse... otherwise I wouldn't be able to type urls here on forum...
I was told to use /home/UserName/public_html/ instead of ftp login details, but it doesn't work so I've used ftp login details.
Now, yes, the jpg file is being downloaded to my ftp, but in root folder, not even in /public_html/ folder. I've tried with my main ftp login, which is without the "@" symbol.. I tried adding /public_html/ to an end and still, files are being downloaded to the root folder on my ftp
What am I doing wrong?
I would appreciate help as I am brand spanking new to this
Is it possible using FTP to download a whole directory and all subdirectories at once without having to go through every single file?
Thanks,

ftp_nb_get
FTP_NB_GET(3) 1 FTP_NB_GET(3)ftp_nb_get - Retrieves a file from the FTP server and writes it to a local file (non-blocking)SYNOPSIS
int ftp_nb_get (resource $ftp_stream, string $local_file, string $remote_file, int $mode, [int $resumepos])
DESCRIPTION ftp_nb_get(3) retrieves a remote file from the FTP server, and saves it into a local file.
The difference between this function and ftp_get(3) is that this function retrieves the file asynchronously, so your program can perform
other operations while the file is being downloaded.
PARAMETERS
o $ftp_stream
- The link identifier of the FTP connection.
o $local_file
- The local file path (will be overwritten if the file already exists).
o $remote_file
- The remote file path.
o $mode
- The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY.
o $resumepos
-The position in the remote file to start downloading from.
RETURN VALUES
Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED or FTP_MOREDATA.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
ftp_nb_get(3) example
<?php
// Initate the download
$ret = ftp_nb_get($my_connection, "test", "README", FTP_BINARY);
while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {
// Do whatever you want
echo ".";
// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
if ($ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
echo "There was an error downloading the file...";
exit(1);
}
?>
Example #2
Resuming a download with ftp_nb_get(3)
<?php
// Initate
$ret = ftp_nb_get($my_connection, "test", "README", FTP_BINARY,
filesize("test"));
// OR: $ret = ftp_nb_get($my_connection, "test", "README",
// FTP_BINARY, FTP_AUTORESUME);
while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {
// Do whatever you want
echo ".";
// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
if ($ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
echo "There was an error downloading the file...";
exit(1);
}
?>
Example #3
Resuming a download at position 100 to a new file with ftp_nb_get(3)
<?php
// Disable Autoseek
ftp_set_option($my_connection, FTP_AUTOSEEK, false);
// Initiate
$ret = ftp_nb_get($my_connection, "newfile", "README", FTP_BINARY, 100);
while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) {
/* ... */
// Continue downloading...
$ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
?>
In the example above, newfile is 100 bytes smaller than README on the FTP server because we started reading at offset 100. If we didn't
disable FTP_AUTOSEEK, the first 100 bytes of newfile would be '
