ftp_get not allowing download to local drive

Hi,

I have been trying to write a simple FTP upload / download script based on: Stream me up Scotty!.

I have managed to get this working a treat on my local machine (even FTP to my real server). But when I tried to download a file to my local machine when using the ftp script located on my host, I got the error message:

Warning: ftp_get(): Error opening c:\\\\\preview.php in /home/jamieb/www/hds/hdsadmin/uploads/ftp.php on line 33

Where preview.php is a name of a fiel located on my server.

I have searched many forums / tried php.net, but can't find a solution. Any ideas?

My code is as follows:

PHP Code:


		
			
for ($x=0; $x<sizeof($_POST['dfile']); $x++):

if ($_POST['down'] ==""):

$local = ("c:\\");

else:

$local = $_POST['down'];

endif; 

$localfile = "".$local."\\".$_POST['dfile'][$x]."";



$res_code = @ftp_get($result, $localfile, $_POST['dfile'][$x], FTP_BINARY);

endfor;

Any help appreciated....

Br

Jamie
