How to Use FTP on Windows XP

Click the "Start" button; then click the "Run" icon in the Start menu. This will open a Run window.
Type "cmd" in the "Open" text box in the Run window; then click the "OK" button. This will open a command prompt window.
Type "ftp" in the command prompt window and then press the "Enter" key. This will set the command prompt in the command prompt window to FTP mode.
Type "open" in the command prompt window followed by the name of the website to which you want to send your file; then click the "Enter" key. If you are prompted for the user name and password you use for the website you are connecting to, enter them.
Type "send" in the command prompt window followed by the full path to and name of the file you want to send. For example, to send a file named picture.jpg that is located in your My Documents folder, you would type the following, replacing YourUserName with the actual name you use to log in to Windows XP :
send C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\My Documents\picture.jpg
Verify that the path and file name you typed in are correct; then click the "Send" key. This will send your file by FTP and complete the process.

The follow article explains how to upload your files to our server using FTP (File Transfer Protocal) through a web browser. Most graphical operating systems have a browser installed by default. The basic idea is to first establish a connection with our server and your computer and then upload the files. This will transfer your files to our server.

To upload your files using a browser, please follow these steps:

Open your web browser and enter ftp://username@domainname.com in the address bar.
You will be prompted to enter the password for this account.

Once you successfully login you will see your folder on our server.

You can now drag files from your local computer into this folder to upload files to our server.
