Issues with ftp_put() Upload

[PehJota]

I'm kinda new to PHP, and I'm trying to make a simple FTP upload script. It successfully connects to the server and logs in, but it can't upload. The transfer mode I use normally is ASCII (like I have it in the script), and for now, I have the mode set to passive (although I'll give a choice later on when I actually implement the script). (I starred out the password here, it is in the file, though.)

Here's the entire page (not much, just the script itself):

[PHP]<?php

$source_file='C:\cmd.txt';
$destination_file='cmd.txt';

$name='TestGuy';
$type='Text Document';

// set up basic connection
$conn_id = ftp_connect('ftp.pehjota.com');

// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id,'pehjotauploads','******');

// check connection
if (!$conn_id){
echo "Connection failed!<br />";
exit;
} else {
echo "Connected.<br />";
}
if (!$login_result){
echo "Login failed!<br />";
exit;
} else {
echo "Logged in.<br />";
}

// upload the file
$passive=ftp_pasv($conn_id,true);
$upload=ftp_put($conn_id,$destination_file,$source _file,FTP_ASCII);

// check upload status
if (!passive){
echo 'Failed to enter passive mode.<br />';
}
else {
echo 'Entered passive mode.<br />';
}
if (!$upload) {
echo 'Upload failed! Could not upload "'.$source_file.'" to "http://www.pehjota.com/uploads/'.$destination_file.'"<br />';
//mail('[e-mail]','New Submission',$name.' has tried to submit a '.$type.'. The file is located at: http://www.pehjota.com/uploads/'.$destination_file,'From: [e-mail]');
} else {
echo 'Uploaded "'.$source_file.'" to <a href="http://www.pehjota.com/uploads/'.$destination_file.'">"http://www.pehjota.com/uploads/'.$destination_file.'"</a><br />';
mail('[e-mail]','New Submission',$name.' has submitted a '.$type.'. The file is located at: http://www.pehjota.com/uploads/'.$destination_file);
}

// close the FTP stream
$close=ftp_close($conn_id);

if (close){
echo 'FTP connection successfully closed.';
}
?>[/PHP]

I also tried adjusting chmod permissions for the folder to which this would upload (to 777) just in case, but that did nothing.

i've been wondering this too..
but now after some view try and error, i can solve this problem...
first you need to specify your local file that you want to upload...
and must with full path like c:/abc/abc.file
don't use $_FILES[s]['filenameform'] because this will be same as moving file from server to some folder with ftp. thats not what we want...

you can use application/x-www-form-urlencoded in enctype of the head of the form. and
use $_post['filenameform'] to get the path from your local hard drive. you can relax if you use IE because this browser post them with full path,
like c:\\abc\\abc.file. but in firefox, the browser only pass the filename only, like abc.file..this will not upload anything...
so solution for this thing is using javascript, so after you pick a file from file form, some hidden form will catch the path..

pasv mode is used when "It may be needed if the client is behind firewall." thats php manual says, i dont know what it means, wether the
browser is firewalled or the php is firewalled???


this is the source code

$localfile = //"H:/666/666Satan Vol. 04.zip"; working...

print_r ($_FILES); //debugging purpose
print_r ($_POST); //debugging purpose

$ftp_server = "localhost";
$remote_file = rand().$_POST['f'];
// set up a connection or die
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die("Couldn't connect to $ftp_server");
$ftp_user_name="newuser";
$ftp_user_pass="wampp";
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
//ftp_pasv($conn_id, true); //you can comment or uncomment it if you using firewall

echo "login result : ".$login_result."\n";
echo "local file ".$localfile."\n";
echo "remote file ".$remote_file."\n";

echo "Current directory is now: " . ftp_pwd($conn_id) . "\n";
// change directory if needed,
if (ftp_chdir($conn_id, "/trans/files/")) {
echo "Current directory is now: " . ftp_pwd($conn_id) . "\n";
} else echo "can't change dir";

if (ftp_put(
$conn_id,
$remote_file,
$localfile,
FTP_BINARY )) {
echo "successfully uploaded $file\n";
} else {
echo "There was a problem while uploading $file\n";
}

// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
