# ftp_connect

(PHP 3>= 3.0.13, PHP 4 )

ftp_connect -- Opens an FTP connection

## Description

resource ftp_connect ( string host [, int port [, int timeout]])

Returns a FTP stream on success or `FALSE` on error.

ftp_connect() opens an FTP connection to the specified `host`. The `port` parameter specifies an alternate port to connect to. If it is omitted or set to zero, then the default FTP port, 21, will be used.

The `timeout` parameter specifies the timeout for all subsequent network operations. If omitted, the default value is 90 seconds. The timeout can be changed and queried at any time with ftp_set_option() and ftp_get_option().

> Note: This parameter is available beginning with PHP 4.2.0.
