    Hi,

    I coded a web ftp one+ year ago, and see it's so useful. I often receive good comments from my users.

    But it looks like there's nobody use a web ftp nowadays, since SSH and others seem better and more secured.

    What do you think?

    (I means web based ftp client / web ftp client)

    Yes i know your talking of a site like http://www.net2ftp.com/

    Actually what i was saying is that now softwares like filezilla can be downloaded on the computer and we can save ftp details and stuff so no use of using online ftp

    Why not make an upload script for the site that needs it? I don't really see the point of trusting a 3rd party server with my ftp login.
