How do I link from a web page to a file on an FTP site?
You can create a link to an FTP object, no problem. The link will take the form:
<A HREF=»FTP://log:pass@server.name/dir/path/filename»>Click here to download</A>
Where:
«log» is the login id
«pass» is the password
«server.name» is the server url – you can use the IP instead (123.45.67.8 or whatever)
«/dir/path» is the path to the directory on the server
«filename» is the filename in the server directory
«Click here to download» is your display text – could be an image as well, or instead.
