FTP-File download

[Junior]

Sorry for my lack of knowledge-
Using FP 2002
I want to place a file (zip format - since the file is 24Mb unzipped) on my
web site so a friend may download it.- i.e. save it to their PCs
insteafd of having to mail a disk.
Could someone tell me the basics of doing this?
The help in FP doesn't seem to cover FTP or download

W/ a 24MB file FP may have problems publishing & IE and have problems downloading
If your host supports subwebs create a folder to a subweb & use an 3rd party FTP to upload it
- better still check w/ your host if they support FTP dropboxes in addition to the FP SE

Thanks to Tom and Stephan
My website is part of ISP pachkage and has a 20MB limit -
Following Tom's help - i was able to publish the file zipped alittle over
3Mb.
Appreciate your help - my next question which i'll post - is it possible to
have a page where others can upload files?

Yes but only using server side scripting or FP2002 on a Windows server w/ the FP 2002 SE (if you host allows it
See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;299763&Product=fp2002
