When trying to get the modified time of a file that has spaces in it, ftp_mdtm will fail on some FTP servers. If this happens, surround the file name with quotes. $file_name = "my index.html"; $file_modtime = ftp_mdtm($connection, '"'.$file_name.'"')

Seems to work with directories as well on my Win32 box.
