Help!!
I can't upload in binary mode with net::ftp. The default transfer mode is ascii and my images do not work.
Do you know the syntax for a binary transfer?
---
$ftp = Net::FTP->new("$host", Debug => 0) or &error;
---

thank you.

$ftp->type(binary);

Hi PaulWilson!

It doesn't work for me :(
Can you have a look?
Thank you.

------------------
use Net::FTP;

$ftp = Net::FTP->new("$host", Debug => 0) or &error;
$ftp->type(binary);
#i also tried with $ftp->type("binary");
$ftp->login("$username","$pass") or &error;
$ftp->cwd("$path") or &error;

$ftp->put("$file");

$ftp->binary;

?

One or the other should work.

Do you get an error?

no errors but images are corrupted (you know... we can't upload in ascii mode image files)
ascii mode is the default in net::ftp

As far as I know, something like this should work.....

use Net::FTP;

$ftp = Net::FTP->new("$host", Debug => 0) or &error;
$ftp->login("$username","$pass") or &error;
$ftp->cwd("$path") or &error;
$ftp->binary;
$ftp->put("$file");

yeah, it generally helps to be logged into the ftp server before issuing transfer methods;)
it would be like querying for the number of emails you have before you logged into the email server.

-g


s/(\d{2})/chr($1)/ge + print if $_ = '8284703280698276687967';

LOL....good point....
