RE: Re: FTP upload not possible

HI Henrik,

Again I would like to say "tack so mycket". It was exactly like you presumed, it was not possible to select the "upload file", because of the missing traling "/".

Best regards
Thomas Hansen

In what way is it not possible to use it? Do you get an error message,
or is the menu choice always greyed out?

I only know that Squid should handle it if you can convince Netscape
that is is possible, and that my versions of Netscape works nicely (3.01
and 4.04 Linux). As soon as I sucessfully opens a FTP directory it is
possible to select "upload file" from the file menu.

The URL has to end in a / however, so if you are trying to open a FTP
directory without specifying a trailing / then Netscape will (correcly)
assume you requested a file which happens to look like a displayable
HTML directory listing, and FTP upload will be disabled.
