FTP problem (Jan Schenkel)

[Brendan Bonsack]

Hi Jan (and Dave!)

Thanks for both of your responses. These helped slightly, but now I get an empty (ie 0 byte) file on my server, rather than a string inside the file. I'm not sure at all what is causing this! Surelt "binefile:/" is enough to denote all of the file's content?

Regards
Brendan
