[Neurox66]

Hi,
I've strange result from ftp folder.
I've read the folder with this command:
put url ("ftp://" & FTPUSER & ":" & FTPPASS & "@" & FTPHOST) into myVar

and that is the result:
1 user group 0 May 04 07:15 colourtag-page0.css
1 user group 0 May 04 07:18 colourtag-page1.css
1 user group 0 May 04 07:16 css
1 user group 0 May 04 07:16 fonts

Any hints ?

Date handling in FTP file listings is poorly spec'd and capricously implimented, completely unusable for all but the most trivial of tasks.

For anything requiring useful data specificity I prefer to use LiveCode Server instead (or PHP or Python or anything else less ill-concieved than the horrible vagueries of date handling in lists in the FTP RFC).

I remember reading something about the dates only for the last 6 months have no year on it, but was not able to find the documentation in a cursory look..

Thanks.
I've found this link

yeah, that is for PHP.. There are many different types of FTP servers and they can all output their LIST results differently..

If you choose to handle this via CGI with LiveCode Server, see the Dictionary entry for "files" function, noting the "detailed" option.
