binary or ascii mode for php ftp ??

[bobmurphy]

maybe some well learned person could do me a favour and clue me in here as im a bit confused !!!

I have been using filezilla as an ftp and ran into difficulties when uploading a 3rd party script - as it chose ascii mode for the .php script when it was supposed to be binary --

later i looked at the settings in my htmlKIT program and found that the default upload for .php files was set to ascii -- now i upload to a unix server --

what is the correct mode for php going to a unix server ??

is it possible that my webite is inherently flawed at this stage because apparently ive been uploading all my php in ascii ??

if that is the case a) how would i know ? and b) what should i do about it ?


THANKS

Any file created by typing into a text editor is, obviously, text and should be uploaded as text (aka ASCII).

yeah its ASCII

binary is PC code such as:

0101011101000110101

which i doubt ur scripting in ;)
