I use a free version of AceFTP for uploading the files. My co-worker would like to be able to view the image files I've uploaded to the FTP site, & since I don't have any problems working with Firefox for downloading & viewing the files, I thought that might be a simple solution for her. I didn't want to add a different type of program like a standalone FTP program; she's comfortable with web browsers, so I was hoping I could stick with that. But thanks for the suggestion.

I can't answer you specifically because I don't use a browser for FTP, which leads to a suggestion: My experience has been that, in general, browsers are terrible FTP clients. Have you considered using a standalone FTP client? There are many. FileZilla is open source, free, and solid. You will need to spend a couple of minutes setting up the connection (specifying the URL and login information), but after that there's nothing to it. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** ************************************************************************* ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
