Right, i do an ftp interface that looks like html (cause it is), and i send and recieve html with a language that never heard of cgi or html (i'm not good enough at Eu to do it in Eu yet). But then, i know the reciever is html compliant, cause it asks for html. Doesn't windoze already come with an ftp upload program? Look in your windoze directory... errrr... "folder".
