Resume downloading a file from an FTP server. Chilkat2 PHP

<?php

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$ftp = new Ftp2();

    // Change to the remote directory where the file is located.
    // This step is only necessary if the file is not in the root directory
    // for the FTP account.
    $ftp->ChangeRemoteDir('temp');

    // To resume a download, it is assumed that the partial file
    // is already present on the local filesystem.
    // You only need to set the RestartNext property to resume
    // the download.  The Chilkat FTP component sets the resume
    // point by getting the existing size of the target (local) file.
