Hi Probably the only way will be with a java applet to do the transfer directly to the other host. Not sure if applets can connect to a host that they did not originate from.... (not done much with java yet :) Tom At 11:09 PM 12/04/01 -0500, David Minor wrote:
hmm, good idea, but the only access I have to the remote machine is ftp. Can't put a script on it. I am getting the feeling that I actually have to move the file(s) from the user's machine to my server and then transfer them to the FTP site? I was hoping there would be a way to transfer directly from the user to the remote FTP site. But now that I think about it, I guess probably not. so the trick would be to let the form upload them to /tmp and then move them to the remote site. Takes twice as long. :( I'm talking about 10-15 MB at a time while the user waits for confirmation. That's a long wait (even moving it once). Any ideas? dm Plutarck wrote: Or you could just put a PHP script on the target server that will take the input via GET and store the data for you.

sure. keep track of the files on the server drive, then open a connection using fopen() and fputs the contents of each file.
