PHP files are text files, thus you can use any text editor to make your
changes. On Windows, the simplest way would be to use notepad or wordpad to
edit and save your changes. On other platforms like unix/linux you could use
pico, vi, or emacs to name a few.
If you have telnet access to the server, it'd be easier to just code your
changes on the server, bypassing the need for ftp'ing.
To download a file, do the same as you would with any other file. In CuteFTP
you can drag the file from the server window to your desktop (or wherver
your default save location is) and save it there. Then, when you upload,
since its text, you don't need to set it to binary.
I use CuteFTP for uploading and downloading files, but when coding anything,
I find it easier to just telnet in and use pico (now I submit to flames from
BOTH the vi and emacs lovers =P )
best of luck,
jack

Subject: [PHP] Newbie Help!! Please Look!
Hello,
I need to know if there is a program out there that I can use to edit
the PHP files. I use CuteFTP to download the files from my server as I
need to change some wording around from time to time. Does anyone know
the correct procedure for downloading a php file with CuteFTP and then a
program that I can use to edit the text I need to edit. Then also, the
correct way to upload it back to the server using CuteFTP. Do I use
Binary or ACII.
Or, if I am way off and there is a program that makes CuteFTP look
silly, please let me know this also. I am open for any suggestions, as
long as they are detailed. Please email responses to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
.
Thank you!
