The print way worked for me also now that I did $|=1; and piped STDERR to STOUT and
also the $ftp debug to 1,
to find my probs, thanks.
Actually at first I did the cwd and just used the file name only but while
experiementing and trying to figure out
What I was doing wrong I removed the cwd and just made the filename variable like
'public_html/file.html' instead
Of cwd then file.html and it works like a monkey, so it is more clever than you
thought! Although if it may not be portable I'll stick to using cwd.
Thanks
