FTP TIP:
Answering the Question
"Do I Use ASCII or
Binary?"
When
transferring
files to and
from an FTP
site, the
general rule is
to
use ASCII for
'text' files
(which includes
.html files) and
Binary for
everything
else. That
means, you'd use
Binary to
transfer JPG and
GIF
images, any
programs, Zipped
files, etc.
In both WS_FTP
Pro and WS_FTP
LE, it's always
a good idea to
check
'Auto' under
'file transfer
mode'. Using
'auto' should
match the
correct
transfer mode
for each file
type.
Do you have a good
FTP tip? Post it

"Dynamic Drive is my
favorite place to go
"shopping" for free DHTML
scripts. The organization
of the site makes it easy
to browse, and the
directions for using the
scripts are great! Each
script is previewed on
its description page, so
what you see is what you
get. This site made
it simple to add flair to
my website. The only
problem is to know when
to quit..."
