<?php

$file = 'somefile.txt';

// connect to the server
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);

//  get the last modified time
$buff = ftp_mdtm($conn_id, $file);

if ($buff != -1) {
    // somefile.txt was last modified on: March 26 2003 14:16:41.
    echo "$file was last modified on : " . date ("F d Y H:i:s.", $buff);
} else {
    echo "Couldn't get mdtime";
}

// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
