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

Note that you're already dieing when you fail to connect, so you can assume that you are connected. However, you can also check the status of the connection using:

echo $con !== FALSE ? 'Connected' : "Couldn't connect";

ftp_connect: Returns a FTP stream on success or FALSE on error.
