*You* need FireFTP (ie direct FTP upload capabilities from within
the browser).  *I* don't.  I am quite happy with Chrome.  I am
quite happy to recommend Chrome to people.

Never forget that what might be an absolutely-positively-must-have
feature for you could be something that someone else never even
looks at.

Agreed. But, I can't be the only one needing FTP capabilities. There
are stacks of people with their own websites. I am just surprised
that this is missing from Opera and Chrome. I would expect it to be
something that is automatically included in the spec fo any browser.
Oh well, wrong again. Nothing new there then!!

Neil

I would be surprised if they didn't support FTP in a R/O sense, but it
really isn't the browser's job to support uploading files.

Likewise, I'm sure there are people who complain that OOo Writer
doesn't support XYZ feature that can be found in GIMP...

Grant.


I'm disappointed that OOo Calc doesn't have a full blown flight simulator included in it! :-D
