That only works if you have used the file wrapper functions to open the
remote FTP connection. Some FTP hosts don't support the use of these
wrappers I believe also.

What is wrong with using ftp_rawlist() ?

I specifically asked about FTP under PHP.  As far as I can see neither  
of these references

have anything to do with FTP.



http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/wrappers.ftp.php

Supports stat()	No	As of PHP 5.0.0: filesize(), filetype(), file_exists(),  
is_file(), and is_dir() elements only. As of PHP 5.1.0: filemtime().


should work if PHP >= 5.0.0

I have just got access to a new server, and am playing with

upload/download procedures. I
looked in the root directory, and see several objects which I  
assume to be

directories.
However I was surprised to find there does not appear to be any  
command to

determine if an
object is a file or directory, either in PHP FTP or plain FTP.  I  
could

try to change to

them, or download them, but this seems overkill.  Am I overlooking

something obvious?




That answer doesn't seem to quite come close even to answering the op
question.

Have you looked at ftp_rawlist which returns a detailed list of  
files,

along with their permissions and directory flags? Or you could use
ftp_size to determine the size of a file, which should be nothing  
for a

directory.


Thanks,

Yes; I found ftp_rawlist eventually, but I still haven't found a  
definition of the return

code, though I think I know most of it.

I guess that even a null file will hve some length?  I will probably  
use the leading 'd'

in the return code to test for directories..

(And I spent a long time trying to work out how 'drwxr-xr-x 2  
riordan riordan 512 Jul 31
06:40 cgi-bin' could contain lots of spaces, before I remembered  
that, as a result of one

of the weirder design decisions,  HTML suppresses trailing spaces.)
