Internet Explorer 7 and FTTP???

Post by Da_Cheese »

I just did the upgrade for Internet Explorer...from 6.0 to 7.0 However the FTTP access changed. When I click on it.. it say's to click on page and then click on "Open with internet exlporer" .. I have tried many times.. cant seem to get it to open with internet explorer. I know IE 7 is new.. but do I need to change it back to 6 or are you guys going to address this.. or maybe I'm just to much of a E-Noob.. lol

Nothing we really can do about this because this is a limitation of IE 7, not us. IE 7 loses the FTP folder functions that IE 6 had as well as changes its configuration controlling FTP sites. It uses the windows explorer, and IE 7 isn't working properly for that at this time. Its a bit buggy and will need to be updated in the future. For now, you can enable the classic menus for IE 7 and you can now use the File menu to select the “Open FTP in Explorer” option. You can use the information to access the FTP through there.

Another way would be to copy the ftp link provided on the file manager page and paste it into windows explorer. It could be the address bar for My computer, my documents, etc. Just make sure it starts with ftp:// so windows explorer recognizes that its ftp and loads it properly.

There may be some other ways, but that is what I remember from using IE 7 briefly as a beta. Some FTP capabilities were fixed in beta 2, but in beta 3, it broke again. I'm hearing the same things for the IE 7 final, so I am sticking with IE 6 myself. I'm a firefox guy myself.

No, it still relies on IE and its internal window explorer functions, but this problem has been resolved by Valve.
