PHP Server Copy
One of the biggest pains in hosting a website comes when you realize that you need to switch servers, or mirror a website. Ideally your initial server should do you just fine, but theres always those times when you find a better deal, the initial server gets hacked and you need to move, or for whatever reason you need to move your site, to another server. Now if your site hosts a lot of files, this can present itself to be a problem in fact become a quite cumbersome ordeal especially if you have a slow Internet connection or limited bandwidth. It is in that problem that lies the solution which is this script. I searched around for a bit to find a script that could help me mirror a copy of a website, but there was nothing that was simple. Luckily PHP can handle FTP protocol seamlessly so creating a script wasn’t all that much of an ordeal.

Is a sample of the documentation. Very poor instructions. You should be familiar with PHP and FTP before you try to use it. Not recommended.

I've been looking for usch a script for long -- I'm a PHP programmer myself, but I felt too lazy to write a similar script. After downloading, I had to make some modifications because it didn't support detecting text/binary files, and it didn't detect and set file permissions. I also had to modify it so that it presented a login form instead of having to modify the ftp server login data in the source code. Bottom line: use it if you know your PHP well :)
