Automate the FTP feature in MX2004

message from shakim on 16 Jul 2004
I have a file that needs to be uploaded to my site every morning. Is there a
way I can set up the ftp feature in dreamweaver to do this every morning? If
not, is there a plugin or extension I can buy? Or maybe a third party software
that is cheat or free that I can use. Thanx

What type of system are you on? If Mac or Linux, you could set up a crontab
entry to run a shell script every AM, that would ftp the file.

are these files you want to upload something that can be prepared in
advanced? Or- are they generated on your machine daily?

If the former- you could upload a batch of files and use scripting to
include or link to the correct file for that day.

in other words- what is it that you are uploading?
