Hey there, MDB. Be sure to read the entire intro page. You cannot be using anything but Internet Explorer, and it must not be version 7 or above. Of course, a dedicated FTP client works perfectly, but most users don't have one, or know how to use it; thus, my instructions on using a browser. If anyone needs to send files, and has trouble, PM me. Edit: Omitted unnecessary sentence (unnecessary due to split from another topic).

I knew that, but haven't made that switch yet. I was more expecting the Firefox/alternate browser fanatics to chime in.

I agree - most have IE 7. But, please understand that it's not an issue on my end - FTP is universal, and standard. What's changed is IE's support of FTP, and signing onto FTP sites. Apparently it's unsupported in IE 7 (and likely 8 too). One popular stand-alone program is Cute FTP. I may put this program up via a link in the near future, to accommodate those who have trouble with IE. Also, I've been looking for 'drag and drop' or 'click here to upload files' Java scripts as an alternate way of sending files. I know there's a couple of Java gods out there - send me the script / code if you got it !

I still have IE 6 on one of my PC's  As to FTP programs, there's also FileZilla and SmartFTP (I've used both, but don't remember if one was better than the other, since I haven't used either in a long time)

FireFTP http://fireftp.mozdev.orgFTP client Firefox extension, for those who don't want to install and maintain another app for infrequent FTP use. I haven't tested it with CAGDC myself; I just use IE6 for FTP'ing to CAGDC since it's pretty infrequent.
