Quick question about uploading

[eluser]RS71[/eluser]
When uploading a file, you can upload it to the webserver or an ftp yes? If so, what is the difference pros/cons between those two?

For example, say I had to have a client access area for them to upload me large files, list uploaded files and get an email when a file is uploaded.

Thanks

You will need to upload it to your webserver first, then send it off to another server via FTP if you feel the content should be on different servers.

I do this when working with large media files, or files that need to be available even if the web server goes down.

Hello pyromaniac

So when I upload using the FTP Class, I am not sending directly to the FTP but to the webserver first than to the FTP?

Interesting. So I could say that uploading to the FTP would serve more as a backup in my case?
