Hello All,

I just wanted to ask how (if I could) add C++ executables to my FTP Server (I used FileZilla to make it).

Also, (this may be the wrong forum but I'll put it in here anyway) could I add JavaScript things to my server.

Thanks.

Probably not.

You aren't very specific about your problem but, I am guessing that you want to run programs on your distant ftp server. If it's not hosted by you but by a website hosting company, you probably can't.
If you just want to upload exes, well... normally FileZilla treats it as any other file, but I don't think that's your problem.

As for JS, JS is client sided, it's executed in a web page, so if your server is from a website host, you can add JS in your pages. If you want to execute server-sided code, perhaps take a look at PHP?

Again, you aren't very clear about what you want to do :P

Sorry I suppose not,

FileZilla isn't a website-hosted thing-is it? I downloaded the program from sourceforge and use the executable.

Anyway, after I started this thread I spent like all day making a webmail server. I can add HTML content to that homepage (as well as JavaScript). For whatever it's worth, I used WAMP Server, hMail Server, and Squirrel Mail to make it.

But thanks for your help. Any tips on servers would be great though.

Thanks.

FTP is simply a protocol for transferring files back and forth. It doesn't support anything beyond that.
