Fire FTP Client Ext for Firefox

[Zo]

Just saw this in another newsgroup and thought I'd pass it on

Introducing fireFTP, a cross-platform FTP client for Mozilla Firefox
which provides easy and intuitive access to FTP servers. NOTE: This
program is still in 'beta' meaning that while it works just fine, it is
still in development and there are still features and improvements to be
made.


* Features include:
o Any operating system: Windows, Macintosh, and Linux
o Compact: only 60KB in size!
o Resuming: resume broken downloads
o Tabbed Transferring: use fireFTP in a Firefox tab
o Passive/Active Mode: support for both modes of transfers
o Proxy Support: proxies aren't a problem (SOCKS only)
o And best of all: it's FREE!

Zo, how to install this into FF 1.03?
It just downloads, does not (for me) install directly as an extension.
Since this will be another tab, advice?

TIA

Ciao,

Thanks. I did that, it installed .... can't see any change in screen. How
does this get activated?

I hope this will solve the problem that in some links, they open an IE
window automatically, IIRC, they are ftp sites.

Tools - FireFTP
There, on the right-top, you can set your preferences, for example to open
it in a new tab or in a new window.

I don't know, but I'm afraid that this is another issue.
I use FireFTP as a ftp client, to upload files to my sites.
However, when I click on a ftp link FF opens fine, even when I don't have
FireFTP installed or enabled.

Thanks, Maria.
I will save your data for later. Now, it turns out I'm just waiting for FF
1.0.4.... In a previous thread, I wanted a noinstall FF like 1.01 and
previous, got steered on FF forum to a daily 103, so will finally go to 104
install, or if it keeps updating as a new install each time, go back to 093
that always worked fine.

I've never had the issues that lots of people mention with "critical
problems" on the net.

Sorry I didn't get back to you Mike, I see that MLC answered you questions.
Right after I posted this, I shut down so that I could began packing for my
move to a different location. All settled in now, boy! moving is a b---.
