FTP Access in Internet Explorer 7?



               
I am trying to access my FTP site in Internet Explorer 7 but everytime I do it I get "This page cannot be displayed" I have tried in Opera and it works fine. Is there a trick to IE7 and FTP sites? (I have already enabled the FTP in folders section in the advanced setting)

Actually, there is a trick. If you type in the ftp site, and go, go to the page menu, and click view ftp site in windows explorer. Still, internet explorer is not the best for ftp, I reccomend a program such as filezilla.
if you are hosting the FTP site on your home network you will not be able to access it using the public ip address.. for you to test it properly you will need to test from another web enabled pc not on your internal network.

alternatively you can type in the internal ip address and port number you should be able to get access.
