FTP_NB_PUT(3)								 1							     FTP_NB_PUT(3)

ftp_nb_put - Stores a file on the FTP server (non-blocking)

SYNOPSIS
       int ftp_nb_put (resource  $ftp_stream, string  $remote_file, string  $local_file, int  $mode, [int  $startpos])

DESCRIPTION
       ftp_nb_put(3) stores a local file on the FTP server.

	The difference between this function and the ftp_put(3) is that this function uploads the file asynchronously, so your program can perform
       other operations while the file is being uploaded.

	      o $ftp_stream
		- The link identifier of the FTP connection.

	      o $remote_file
		- The remote file path.

	      o $local_file
		- The local file path.

	      o $mode
		- The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY.

	      o $startpos
		-The position in the remote file to start uploading to.

RETURN VALUES
	Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED or FTP_MOREDATA.
