FTP web client and code editor

Question

I am looking for a way to support LAMP-based websites completely from a browser window .

I currently use FlashFXP and NoteTab Pro for FTP and code editing, but they are only good as long as I am at my desk.

I want to find a way to make changes to the site when I leave the office .

If I am in a family and a client calls me about an error on their site, it would be great to connect to an online FTP client, enter a password and work directly on the host .

At a minimum, this program will require a few exceptions, tabs for indentation, the ability to CHMOD, and the ability to create and delete files on the server.

I would like to avoid an advertising solution, and a clean graphical interface is a priority.

.,.

FireFTP is really smooth, but it refuses to display some files on the main site that I support. And since this program will be used on computers that are not mine and, possibly, in public places, it would be nice to avoid installing the plug-in (and, possibly, the browser). If I can get it to work, I can use it for daily FTP.

Bespin looks promising, but at the time of writing it does not have FTP connectivity and very limited export capabilities.

Final Choice: Net2FTP . He does everything that I want. My only complaint is that it is ugly , but I can live with it in return for the flexibility that I get in return.

Answer 1

PHPanywhere.net is exactly what you tend to be. :)

This is a real-time text syntax editor with support for all web formats and includes a powerful FTP editor.

Check out @ http://phpanywhere.net/ and let me know what you think!

Answer 2

I used FireFTP , Firefox add-on for Firefox. It offers all the functions of a standard FTP client, but works on its own tab.

Update: you can always install Firefox Portable and install the plug-in there, so you can carry it with you on a USB flash drive to use on computers of other nations.

Answer 3

Personally, I use http://kodingen.com for my remote work. They also provide free hosting for developing a new project ...

Check it out anyway!

for me phpanywhere.net did not work ... I always had corrupted files and problems with the insert.

Luck

PS: I know his old post, but someone might find it useful.

Answer 4

Try the Firefox extension, FireFTP . It runs directly on its own tab.

Need a complete web solution? Try using Net2FTP . Free, without registration, access it from any browser. I have used it many times, and I think it has all the features you want.

Answer 5

Now that you have indicated that you are really looking for the web , not browser-based , for the editors I suggest taking a look at Bespin , its name has appeared quite often recently.

Answer 6

I like net2ftp

which is network-based, allows you to load, edit pages / code in a standard text field

Another nice feature: you can upload net2ftp to your personal site and use it on ftp on any other site that you have access to.

Answer 7

For this type of thing, best is http://codey.co

The problem is that you cannot add more than 10 FTP connections to the list, and you can only start 1 at a time ... but the editor is great and works like a charm.

I hope you enjoy it and keep in mind that it is in beta, but for the beta, it has been helping my ass for over 1 year now.

Welcome and may be the code with you!

Answer 8

Net2FTP does the job, but it's ugly.

It would be great if you could create an account and store FTP sites.

I am using http://codeanywhere.com

You can use it to store 1 FTP account for free. And the interface looks good. If you want to keep more than 1 FTP account, you will have to pay.

Is there any service like codeanywhere.com, but free?

Answer 9

Filezilla is good. Try your portable version. There is no advertising and the ability to create and delete files .. very convenient ... I have been using it since 2 years.

Answer 10

Well, this is an old post, but since I have the same problem and looked around, I attached the old application in a new design.

PSPad is very convenient:

• built-in FTP for direct editing of files on the server, etc.
• you can have it on a usb drive and use it anywhere in the world
• It is also free.

Many other functions come with the program. It seems like not enough goodies. This is just a candybar for developers :-). Try it, there are many languages!

PSPad (home, eng)

Answer 11

As tj111 said in an answer ( FTP web client and code editor ), you can install fireFTP and FireFOx to be able to run firefox from a USB drive.
Then you can install notepad ++ on the same USB stick. This is a great open source editor with syntax highlighting and tooltip options and more. ( http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/nl/site.htm ) Then you can run both fireFTP and notepad ++ from this USB drive. You can configure fireFTP to automatically open files using Notepad ++. When you save the file in Notepad ++, FireFTP will automatically update it on your FTP server.
