Does anyone know of a little app/tool that adds a feature where you can right click on a file and send to an ftp server (specific folder). <br /><br /><br />Someone told me how to make a bat file while using the windows pre-existing ftp client. It works fine, but I'm looking for something a little more attractive and intuitive. <br /><br /><b>These are the instructions on how to get this to work.</b><br />This will be your bat file (ftpupload.bat) Put your hostname where it say "ftpHostname"<br /><!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->@echo off<br />type cmds.org > cmds.txt<br />echo %1 >> cmds.txt<br />echo quit >> cmds.txt<br />call ftp -s:cmds.txt ftpHostname<br />del cmds.txt<br />pause<!--c2--></div><!--ec2--><br /><br />This will be just a file where the commands are held.

To discuss any other alternatives.<!--content-->
You can try "SendTo FTP". I use WS_FTP Pro for my ftp client, which includes this feature and work much better than "SendTo FTP". It only takes a few clicks and you can choose from any site stored in WS_FTP.<!--content-->

both cuteftp and wsftp support this. Wow, I've been using smartftp for years now and I'm surprised to see that they don't even have this feature.<br /><br />Thanks, i'll check those 2 ftp clients out.<!--content-->
