Invariably all web hosting ISPs offer ftp(s) for file upload/download. If you pay a bit more you should be able to get ssh/scp/sftp too. Indeed, many ISPs throw in scp/sftp access as part of their basic package. Webdav(s) offers the same basic upload/download functionality, so I am not sure what you find awkward about it, although I'd rather use lftp instead of cadaver any day. ;-) As Alan mentioned, with JavaScript'ed web pages these days there are many webapp'ed ISP offerings like Dropbox and friends. What is the use case you have in mind? -- Regards, Mick
