WebServer and FTP?
« on: June 04, 2009, 10:33:38 AM »
Is there any reason I can't run FTP uploads from NTWS?

I'm finding the problem with the http:// upload (as per example 26) is that there is no progress indicator.  And on really big files I expect some of the students will start clicking on things, breaking the upload.  Or an async background upload would be nice :)

Well yes. The web server is an HTTP server not an FTP server.

yes, This is on my list for NT5. Also Bill Shields mentioned finding a really nice upload JavaScript elsewhere on this forum, which I'll probably look to integrate.
