(Thank you again Grant! - for saving me God-knows-how-many hours with the jumpstart you gave me :-) I am successfully (test-)uploading from my local machine to a remote server where I have an ftp acct.. ..and (later) once i get the FTP access for the 3rd party FTP acct where I am actually needing to upload to, then I can finish tweaking the curl command so it works for that account (God willing they do not have weird settings there, that force me to wade through much more of the command-line manual). Anyway, this is just a note that in case anyone else comes to this crossroads.. don't hesitate to ask me for help/sample code. (Off- list, if all you need is the curl command itself, which has nothing to do with webdna directly.) ------------ Govinda govinda.webdnatalk@gmail.com
