The discussion is now getting more into the general coding realm than internals, so let's move it over there in case anyone wants to mention something like: function ftp_dir_exists($conn, $currentDir) { $currentDir = (substr($currentDir,-1,1) == '/') ? substr($currentDir,0,-1) : $currentDir; $list = ftp_nlist($conn, '-dF '. $currentDir); return in_array($currentDir, $list); } -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
