I'm getting sort of frustrated about this, I've been searching but with no luck. My webserver has a php upload limit at 20MB, so therefore I want to set up a ftp connection so that I can upload much larger files to my ftp. How is it done? I understand I can use socket and filereference, but I can't figure out how to set it up. (It hasn't have to be "ultra safe")

no clues?

we could never make an FTP client or connection in Flash. I doubt very much that we will ever see File I/O in the Flash Player for security reasons.

Ok. Can I get around this in any way. I was thinking it might be possible to use filereference to browse for the file, and when user click "ok" get the ftp url with user and pass somehow embedded in the request in a new window and automaticly start the upload of the file.. Could this work or is there simply no solution to this problem?
