Yet again I have an annoying problem with a firewall at work providing read-only access to ftp.
I'm wondering if I can get some kind of PHP based FTP client so that can put it on a server and do all my FTP administration using HTTP in my web browser.
Please advise if anybody knows any good ones.
Cheers

Could anybody install these on the webspace they pay for? My host does actually use CPanel but it runs on a port that's blocked by my workplace's firewall so I don't get to use it during the day.
I have a program PHP program called filethinge.php wheich just read/writes to the server using PHP. That's all good but the public_html folder is read only so it cannot use it. Can I CHMOD a whole dir AND all the files within it?
what you could try is getting an account at no-ip.org and setting it up such that it takes port 80 and forwards to your ftp server on the appropriate port (20?). Then you can use an ftp client pointed at the no-ip.org domain on 80 and it will be automatically switched over.
LOL... It's a good point LiLpunkSkateR but I'm really into my web design stuff and I can't put it down when I get started.
My job is just an IT Helpdesk agent job at the moment anyway cos I just finished Uni 6 months ago and haven't managed to land a job developing yet. I get plenty of spare time at work cos it's a bit of a joke if I'm honest
I'm gonna write my own ftp client and post the source code back cos it seems like this is a bit of a dead loss at the moment. You could technically write a very good client working almost purely with the ftp_site() commands. Watch this space
