Note that you may have to keep calling ftp_nb_continue in order to complete the download. For example, if you do this:

<?php
ftp_nb_get($conn,$localfile,$remotefile,FTP_BINARY)
//do some LONG time work
while(ftp_nb_continue($conn)!=FTP_FINISHED){}
?>

Your local file may only contains a few kilobytes and the later ftp_nb_continue will keep raising warning of no more data (due to connection time out, I guess).

So you may want to do this instead:

<?php
$dl=ftp_nb_get($conn,$localfile,$remotefile,FTP_BINARY)
//part of long time work
if(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA) {}
//part of long time work
if(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA) {}
//continue to do this until you finish the long time work
while(ftp_nb_continue($conn)==FTP_MOREDATA){}
?>

This happened on my Windows XP + PHP 5.3.8 under CLI. Hope this helps someone.
