uploading php files in ascii ?

[redmike]

Hi,

how do I upload php files in ascii ?

I have to upload gif files in binary but I imagine that if I select the gif files and choose binary in the dropdown window that that should be OK ?

thanks for the help,

Mike

Hello !
- You can choose "Automatic" in the FTP extra-interface. Use the combobox at up-left.
- So, each file-type shall be transfered in the right mode.
- With a click on the "Automatic" line, you'll get a small box, in the field of which you can add (space)*.php after the last type of text-files.

Kind regards,
Claude

- The forum software has been upgraded into phpBB 2.0.10 very recently… Maybe there is a small bug ?
- You may report this to the Author, though he reads the threads : supportATghislerDOTcom
since you are the one able to test then…

The difference is the handling of the end of lines of a text file. Some OS use the linefeed only, some use linfeed plus carriage return some only carriage return. So if you use 'txt-file' for uploading TC finds out how the server would handle the end of line and convert the textfile (e.g. remove the carriage return from window files to save them on unix systems) . If you choose 'binary' TC would leave the file as it is - regardles if it is text or not.
So the 'Text' -option should work for php too. Setting to binary may produce unexpected errors.
