    <p>I have a web-application that allow users to upload images to my web site.</p> <p>What I want to do is instead of hosting those images myself, I want to push those images off to my CDN (Cachefly).</p> <p>Using PHP, I want to FTP an image from my server to another whenever a user uploads an image to my server.</p> <p>However, I want to maintain the file structure path of my current server. Meaning, the file system plan locally is:</p> <pre><code>local: upload/YYYY/MM/DD/uniquefilename.jpg </code></pre> <p>So I want on my CDN for the image to be uploaded to:</p> <pre><code>cdn: upload/YYYY/MM/DD/uniquefilename.jpg </code></pre> <p>The problem is that the directory /YYYY/MM/DD might exist, or might not.</p> <p>I'm using the following PHP code but this does not create the directories (/YYYY/MM/DD) when they are not currently present.</p> <p><strong>How do I FTP an image to a remote server while also maintain the file structure?</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php // set up basic connection $conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server); // login with username and password $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass); // check connection if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) { echo "FTP connection has failed!"; echo "Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user $ftp_user_name"; exit; } else { echo "Connected to $ftp_server, for user $ftp_user_name"; } // upload the file $upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $source_file, FTP_BINARY); // check upload status if (!$upload) { echo "FTP upload has failed!"; } else { echo "Uploaded $source_file to $ftp_server as $destination_file"; } // close the FTP stream ftp_close($conn_id); ?&gt; </code></pre>
