You can't do this. Your FTP client can't request /test/ftp.php as this
requires it to do an HTTP GET for /test/ftp.php, but your FTP client
uses FTP, not HTTP.

It would be possible to write a FTP server using command-line PHP and
have it listen on port 80, but you would connect to it with the FTP
client by pointing it to [your server]:80, not by using an HTTP URL.

This would be pointless, since it would be far easier and more efficient
to use C, etc.

One could, however, make a PHP script that creates an HTTP directory &
file viewer that approximates the functioning of an FTP client.

Also, I don't believe for a second that writing a command-line Internet
program in C is any easier than in PHP.

You could do this with Perl, but you would need to program it as a
server-side daemon, not as a web application.

Web applications only run when they are requested by a client browser,
and as such cannot actively listen on a port.

That's not possible.

I don't need file viewer or HTTP directory, I need a simple Script to
