Anybody using Expression web to remote edit php files on a *nix server?


I am trying to see if anybody is aware of any ssh or ftp ways of editing files in expression web. This is similar to notepad++. I am already aware of sftpdrive option. I am looking for something that is free, and robust.

I have not played with open site feature in Expression Web. I am not sure if this will work well with a php site on a Linux box.


Solution

  • Connect your Expression Web directly to any FTP server in the open site dialog by typing the ftp address in the site name placeholder like ftp://myftpsite.com. Expression web ask you for your login and password and list your folders to begin to edit your files. It’s very easy, no problems at all.
