I want to know how we can send one folder? It is so hard for me find all the object inside of my folder :(

If you look at what's going on in the referenced code, you'll see that they are calling shell commands from Oracle, as it has no built-in FTP functionality. What you'd need to do is similarly write a shell script to return the contents of the directory (using ls on *nix I assume).
