   Looks like you're mixing Windows paths with a linux/unix server... 
but since it is possible to to have directories named like that, try:

ftp_chdir($conn_id, "C\:\\Program\ Files/");

You need to escape the ':' and spaces... and check the permissions.

Neither colons nor spaces need to be escaped.  In fact, "\:" and "\ " 
are illegal escape sequences.

   Ahh, was looking at terminal usage thinking it was the same... (now 
i'm mixing bash and servers). I'd still like to see the directory 
structure. Looks like something to keep a script from breaking.
