Is there a way to check if a a folder exists on the server using PHP Ftp functionality?


Solution

  • For PHP 5:

    $folder_exists = is_dir('ftp://user:[email protected]/some/dir/path');
    

    http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-dir.php : "As of PHP 5.0.0, this function can also be used with some URL wrappers."

    http://php.net/manual/en/wrappers.ftp.php : [Support] "As of PHP 5.0.0: filesize(), filetype(), file_exists(), is_file(), and is_dir()"
