AjaxFTP is a drop-in FTP widget that you can use in Web 2.0 applications.

AjaxFTP widget is skinnable, modular and uses the Ruby on Rails Prototype JavaScript library for a seamless FTP browsing experience

Right now, you can simply connect to an FTP site. It's also skinnable, via some simple GIF files and a stylesheet. It's lightweight, elegant, secure, and easy to use.

Installation:

Decompress and Untar the ajaxftp.tar.gz archive, and drop it in the same directory from which you'd like to include it. Then, simply create a PHP page and include the following code in it:

< ?
require('ajaxftp/ajaxftp.php');
$aj = new AJAXFTP;
$aj->server = "ftp.connect-to-this-site.com";
$aj->baseurl = "http://www.myserver.com/path/to/installation";
$aj->present();
? >

The server variable is the FTP server to which you wish to connect. The baseurl variable is the URL from which you'll be accessing AJAXFTP.

What's New in This Release:
Synchronized version number with commercial version.
Added support for automatically logging into an FTP server.
Bug fixes.
Removed test data from downloadtmp directory.
