The FTP functions give client access to file servers through the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
The FTP functions are used to open, login and close connections, as well as upload, download, rename, delete, and get information on files from file servers. Not all of the FTP functions will work with every server or return the same results. The FTP functions became available with PHP 3.
These functions are meant for detailed access to an FTP server. If you only wish to read from or write to a file on an FTP server, consider using the ftp:// wrapper with the Filesystem functions.

I have some basic PHP FTP functions which are as following :
ftp_chdir() : Changes the current directory on the FTP server
ftp_alloc() : Allocates space for a file to be uploaded to the FTP server
ftp_close() : Closes an FTP connection
ftp_connect() : Opens an FTP connection
