Question FTP link using IP address

I wish to allow users to download files from my web site, but the files are located on my FTP site. The FTP site is on a different PC and has no DNS entry. So I tried using the IP address, but it will not connect. Is this possible?

Anonymous connection is allowed and works fine from an FTP client.

This works...
<a href="ftp://ftp.globalscape.com/">Download FTP Client</a>

This doesn't...
<a href="ftp://ftp.63.221.228.195/">Tools</a>
The FTP IP address shown here is altered.

Try using just the IP address with the ftp protocol:
Code:
<a href="ftp://63.221.228.195/">FTP</a>

Exclamation

I found that the browser must have FTP passive state enabled to download the file.

FTP grom a Web page

I have writter a browser-side, simple FTP client utility using JavaScript and it works fine in all browsers I have tested.

I have used it to go into your FTP server and had a look through your 'pub' and 'update' folders.

Use Domain Name ftp.globalscape.com and Anonymous Login and you will go straight in.

The address of the page is:
URL

I hope that you find this useful
