ftp_nb_put — Stores a file on the FTP server (non-blocking)Descriptionint ftp_nb_put ( resource ftp_stream, string remote_file, string local_file, int mode [, int startpos] )

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

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

Parameters

ftp_stream

The link identifier of the FTP connection.

remote_file

The remote file path.

local_file

The local file path.

mode

The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or
FTP_BINARY.

startpos


Return Values

Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED
or FTP_MOREDATA.

   // Continue uploading...
   $ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection);
}
if ($ret != FTP_FINISHED) {
   echo "There was an error uploading the file...";
   exit(1);
}

Example 2. Resuming an upload with ftp_nb_put()

// OR: $ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local", 
//                           FTP_BINARY, FTP_AUTORESUME);
