Ok here's the deal...

I'm creating a schedule system for work and I thought it'd be a neat idea if I could create a system that would update the files on the website by them clicking a link. I'm pretty sure it's possible just not sure how..

details:
After they click on a link I want them to connect to MY database and on my database I'll have all the file name's and the date's they were modified. By accessing this database I want it to cross-check my databse information with a directory on there FTP, and if there's a missing file or a file that hasn't been modified by the date of the file I have listed on my database, it'll get into MY FTP and copy thoughs files and place them in their FTP in the specified directory.

I'm sure there's a way to do so, and I'm betting it isn't that hard, I just have no clue how I'd do that, I could use some help, thanks.

I did this before, first person to do so actuatly.

Basically, my updation module, checks a file which checks my files for versions, hashes and such and such, if there are updates it lists them etc..

Doesnt use FTP functions and is secure.

and Rasmus is the first man who invented php as preprocessors.

eric, you can learn how to use socket for php programming. it will give you paradigm on how to connect to a remote server and use dynamic update at user's side.
