If you ever land up in a situation where you need to access your FTP server and do not have a FTP client installed on your computer ( and if you are not too versed with the command prompt), you might be interested in using net2ftp. net2ftp is a web-based FTP client written in PHP. Web-based means that net2ftp runs on a web server, and that you use a browser (for example Internet Explorer or Mozilla) to access it.
FTP in general, is the communication method to access files on a remote computer. You need it to access your files on the account given by your provider to host your homepage. FTP is different from HTTP in that it was made specially to transfer (big) files. If a transfer is interrupted, with FTP you can resume it where it broke off, whereas with HTTP it doesnt come by default ( you need to support range requests and the client should also have the same capability).
With net2ftp, once you are logged into the FTP server, you can navigate the directory structure and files just like any other FTP client.You can as usual download and upload files, copy, move and delete folders. You also have the ability to zip and unzip files.
