Question about flashfxp and SSL

Killahbyte · 05-15-2006, 01:33 PM

Is there anyway for a person to specify SSL on a clipboard event. In otherwords a switch in the line: flashfxp://user:password@ipaddress:port/

Alot more ftps use SSL and it would be nice to have a quick copy feature enabling it on paste.

Thanks

you mean to somehow differenciate regular ftp:// url from one that uses SSL?

Exactly.

good suggestion, but there are just too many SSL options to know which one to use, and it would be cumbersome to display the ssl dialog upon paste.

I noticed alot of ftps are either using Implicit or Auth SSL. It would be really cool if people could use switches for basic options and a general switch for the pop up dialog. Somthing like:

Code:

flashfxp/issl://user:pass@ip:port/

or you can use /ssl switch to bring up the dialog box and so on. This way if people want to use it they can but if they prefer the old method they ca use it as well. You would be suprised as to how many people would use this. Especially on VB related ftp code.
