What's wrong with that? Please.

Try checking that the connection and login are working ... code nicked from PHP manual:

// set up a connection or die
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die("Couldn't connect to $ftp_server");

// try to login
if (@ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user, $ftp_pass)) {
echo "Connected as $ftp_user@$ftp_server\n";
} else {
echo "Couldn't connect as $ftp_user\n";
}

Tried specifying absolute paths or trying to acquire a more verbose error message?

Yip, no problems there.

Do you have the correct permissions set on the folder which accepts the files?

Not in this case, as an if statement is being used. If you look on the next line, you'll see he's opening up the block with the {.

I actually get the correct - "There was a problem while uploading $file_a \n" - error message, so the code is working to an extent. I'm pretty sure it's enabled, because it's an open server, so why would they disallow it?

What's the error you were getting?

How about turning on Passive Mode?
Because the script is trying to act like a client.

If it's anything like C++ then you dont use semi colons on if statements.

My knowledge of PHP is very limited.
But shouldn't there be a ';' after:
if(ftp_put($conn_id, $remote_file, $file_a, FTP_BINARY))';'< There?

Probably not but my knowledge of PHP is poor.

Edit:
Oh..
Also wouldnt you have to specify the size of the file that you wish to upload?
