FTP Files From Computer To Server

Linda Roeder
Once you have entered all the information into your FTP program and logged in you will see your computer's files on one side of the FTP screen and your Web site's server files on the other side.

Choose the folder you want to enter your first group of files or Web pages into. If you are uploading your hobby pages first then open the folder you created to keep your hobby pages in.

Highlight the files you want to move. You can choose which files to move by clicking on them. If you want to move a whole group at once click on the first file in the group then hold down the "shift" button on your keyboard and click on the last file. All the files in between should become highlighted. If you only want to choose certain files then click on the first file you want to move and hold down the "ctrl" button. While holding down the "ctrl" button click on the other files you want to move. They should become highlighed as you click on them.

When you have chosen all the files you want to move click on the arrow button to move the files.
