Hey, does anyone know how to do FTP file UPloads using IE (or any browser)? I know how to do downloads, but not uploads.
It would be useful for allowing friends who don't use FTP often enough to justify installing a Client to access my FTP Server.
Thanks for any leads!
IE Upload

Not that I've ever tried uploading with IE, but I guess you just drag files to the window. Or use CTRL+C / CTRL+V (cut/paste)...
Oh, and my guess is a Google search on how to upload FTP Internet Explorer will give you the answer

Hey, thanks, Eddan -- thanks to you I figured it out. One of the Google searches gave instructions specific to their site and uploading web pages, but I was able to extrapolate. In IE it involves > View > Explorer Bar > Folders. The folders on your computer will open on the left.
Then go to the FTP site you want to updload (or download) to by typing "ftp://IP_address:port#" into the address bar. Over on the left, in Folder View, the FTP site will be shown in IE.
Simply navigate (on the left, in folder View) to the folder you want to upload, and drag and drop it into the appropriate FTP folder.
Cool! Thanks!
(don't know that this will work in Firefox since I can't find a way to trigger "folder view"...)

You don't need to do all that in Firefox, it will display correctly automatically. In IE, it should have done it automatically as well. Way too much work and hassle to go through all that.
You can also open up My Computer or Windows Explorer and drag and drop items to the IE window. Same for Firefox.
