In the following article,
WS_FTP LE was used. Depending upon which version of WS_FTP you are using,
the steps may vary.
To publish your Web page using WS_FTP, perform the following steps:
This
article assumes that you have already downloaded and installed a version of
WS_FTP.
From
the Start menu, select Programs, select WS_FTP, click WS_FTP95 LE.

In
the Session Properties window, from the General tab, click New.

Enter a generic Profile Name (e.g., My Web
Site), Host Name/Address (e.g. your-domain.com or your account IP address,
e.g., 10.110.110.10), Control Panel User ID, and Control Panel Password.
Click to select Save Pwd.
We
recommend leaving Host Type at the default value, Automatic detect.

Click
OK.
From
the Local System box, navigate to the directory that contains the file you
want to transfer.

Use the Local System
drop-down menu to change directories by either clicking the drop-down
arrow or entering the desired directory in the box.

Double-click the green
arrow to browse up a directory.
-
Double-click a folder
icon to browse down a directory.

Double-click a drive
icon to browse to the root directory of that drive. Example: [-a-].
In
this example, the directory is located on C:\My Web Site.

From
the Local System scroll box, click the file you want to transfer, then click
the desired mode.
-
Use ASCII to transfer
text files, HTML files, and CGI scripts.

Use Binary to transfer
programs, images, audio files, and text processing files.

Auto permits WS_FTP to
detect and use the proper transfer setting for each particular file.
In
this example, index.html is selected.

From the Remote Site box, navigate to the
directory to which you want to transfer the file.
For
example, to publish your home page, navigate to the root (default)
directory.
