JavaScript Code for FTP Transfer

[Quehay]

Does anyone know of any example of script that allows a user to intiate an FTP with a radio button selector or some similar interface?  Thank you

um, you can not access an FTP through Java<b>Script</b>, but you can always link to an FTP, just by sending them to the URL of <A HREF="FTP://address" TARGET="_new">FTP://address</A>.... , which will open an FTP in the browser, or open their default FTP client. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

Thanks Carl,<br><br>Would it be better to use ASP code to initiate the FTP--using results from user &lt;form&gt; input, e.g. &quot;You can download from the following list: A. B. C.&quot; and then using the choice, previously declared as a pointer to the FTP address, to make the connection and start download?

Personally, I'd go with Karl's solution.&nbsp;&nbsp;That way, the user's machine does the ftp stuff.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you do it on the server, you still have to get the user's ok to download it to their machine.<br> <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>
