ftp_mdtm
When trying to user the ftp_mkdir, or ftp_chdir I've noticed that some servers like the entire path such as
/usr/local/home/username/sitename/directory/
and other servers, want you to use the path from the initial login, such as just /sitename/directory/
Just wanted to pass this on
ftp_mkdir
(PHP 4, PHP 5)

For recurrent following function work better.
Some ftp servers (like WarFTP) become demented if you'll
try mkdir not from root dir and if path will be relative.
The second if one of dir (like '/') already exist You'll get access denied.
<?php
function MkDir($path)
{
$dir=split("/", $path);
$path="";
$ret = true;
for ($i=0;$i<count($dir);$i++)
{
$path.="/".$dir[$i];
echo "$path\n";
if(!@ftp_chdir($this->conn_id,$path)){
@ftp_chdir($this->conn_id,"/");
if(!@ftp_mkdir($this->conn_id,$path)){
$ret=false;
break;
}
}
}
return $ret;
}
?>

Create recursive ftp directory:
function ftp_mkdir_recusive($con_id,$path){
$parts = explode("/",$path);
$return = true;
$fullpath = "";
foreach($parts as $part){
if(empty($part)){
$fullpath .= "/";
continue;
}
$fullpath .= $part."/";
if(@ftp_chdir($con_id, $fullpath)){
ftp_chdir($con_id, $fullpath);
}else{
if(@ftp_mkdir($con_id, $part)){
ftp_chdir($con_id, $part);
}else{
$return = false;
}
}
}
return $return;
}
$dir = "/2012/05/02/"
if(ftp_mkdir_recusive($con_id,$dir)){
print("Successfully created $dir");
}else{
print("There was a problem while creating $dir");
}
