If you are an intermediate PHP developer you may have wanted to use sockets in connect to your FTP server. Demitrious shows you how this is done.
Sockets have long been important to the underlying nature and structure of things in, on and around computers. They are very powerful. PHP allows you to harness them at the expense of a couple of late nights, and many cans of liquid caffeine yet, it seems, that too few people truly understand sockets.

I suppose that before you can really use any functionality of sockets it's important to define what sockets are.
