The below example doesn't seem to work on a windows based machine so I use this trick instead
<?php
$aPath = explode('/',ftp_pwd($conn_id));
$sHomeDir = str_repeat('../', count($aPath) - 1);
ftp_chdir($conn_id, $sHomeDir);
?>

I used a recursive cdup function until i realised i could navigate to the user's home directory from any location using ~:
<? ftp_chdir($connid, "~"); ?>
