you can copy directories with the ftp capabilities of internet explorer, why not do this?


except for the fashion you write the URL, ftp instead of usual www. its like copying items on your hard drive, select hit control c to copy and control v to paste it in a location you want it in, you can even create new folders and make an "old site pages" one for the person who wants a copy.

If filezilla can't do it, get yourself a Linux box and run rsync -av url
where url is the top level url of the website.  The wget utility is
supposed to be able to do this in the background and make a copy for you
starting in a directory of your choice.  Good idea to make an empty
directory to pull everything into and the directory structure on the web
page will be duplicated.

Subject: ot: ftp question

I have a website made by someone else several years ago that I am to
update.  Someone wants a copy of the old one, though.  How do I do this
in Filezilla, if anyone knows? I tried downloading the folders, but when
I hit Applications on a folder, the "download"
option is not available.  I am unable to ftp into this server with PSFTP
or FTP in Windows, or I would just do it from there.
Any thoughts? Mainly, is this a Filezilla problem or something on the
server?

Have a great day,
Alex
