Test FTP connection with PHP

Question

I am using the PHP script below to test FTP connections. Currently it is printing an array of the files, if it successfully connects.

How can I get it to also display

Answer 1

Simply do a check if ftp_nlist() is an array.

Like:

echo is_array(ftp_nlist($con, ".")) ? 'Connected!' : 'not Connected! :(';
