---------- Post updated at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous update was at 03:56 PM ----------

it was fine until it hit a folder with spaces eg, John set 1

Code:
zip error: Nothing to do! (try: zip -r John Set 1.zip . -i John Set 1)

how can I process the folders with spaces?

thanks

quote it. I'm not 100% sure the FTP part will work.

Code:
function FTP_ZIP()
{
      zip_file=$1
      ftp -n remote_server <<FTP
         quote USER remote_username
         quote PASS remote_password
         prompt noprompt
         put "$zip_file"
         ls -l
         bye
FTP
}

for dir in *
do
        zip -r "$dir.zip" "$dir"
        FTP_ZIP "$dir.zip"
        rm "$dir.zip"
done
