Upload files by FTP to website by SendTo

I have made a few nice shortcuts which are in my SendTo folder and
wondered if it is at all possible to send files to a certain folder on
my website via an FTP shortcut?

E.g. Say I want to send "info.txt" to a folder called "fun" on my
website (mywebsite/fun/), I would r-click on the file and choose Send To
and the option would be called FTP.
What would the shortcut command be so it does it all automatically
without me needing to input any username or password?
Thanks

This can be done in a two-step process:
1. You need to write a batch file which invokes an FTP script
to "put" (in FTP language) the chosen file on your web site.
2. You now modify the right-click menu for any file so that it
includes FTP Uploade batch file.

Step 1 has the obvious security risk of placing your user name
and password inside a script file.

I recommend you start with Step 1. Step 2 will require a
modification in the registry to invoke your batch file.
