I know that one can put the following in the location bar ( in, say, konqueror ):

Code:
ftp://username:password@ftp.site.net


And all is nice and well...

But what about in a case where the username is something like, say, "username@site.net", rather than just simply "username"? For instance, like with virtual hosting and such.

The following url in the location bar fails for obvious reasons:

Code:
ftp://username@site.net:password@ftp.site.net



Am I s.o.l. as far as ftp through the browser in this case, or is there some sort of syntax/method that I'm not aware of?


Many thanks!

Replace the @ in the URL by %40. Depending on the browser used, this may or may not work. Some browsers require %%40 instead of %40.

Awesome, the %40 totally did tha trick!

Thanks bro!

( I'm gonna edit out the bit about the webserver corrupting the zip file in my org post - that was a nobrainer on my part... the problem was the actual file, not the server config - DoH! )

Thanks again!
