Can anyone help me? I've contacted the support team with the problem but they weren't much help.
My problem is that when I try to connect to the server to upload my files for my web, It gets as far as getting directory list and then a message appears saying theat it cannot build data connection. Then I get disconnected.
I am using ftp.brjwebdesign.com and the freeola connection but it doesn't work. I also tried ftp.freeola.net but the same happened.

I have used ftp to upload loads of pages to different servers before but never had this problem. I managed to upload the pages using Frontpage 2000 but i need to be able to connect to the ftp server as i want to use CGI.

I would be very grateful if anyone could help.

Ben, I have had no problem, but I do not want to use CGI.

I used WS_FTP Pro as supplied with HoTMetaL pro v 6. Apart from spelling index INDEX I had a lot of succes.

There is a CGI bit in the HTML section of discussions.
