This may seem a silly question, but i'll ask it....

I principally use 2 FTP Clients

FlashFXP and BulletProof FTP

Each has it's own pros & cons.....

My question is this....

When I connect to a Server via BulletProof all the Directories and Files are visable in the connection pane of the program, even when I get disconnected from the site...eg when I'm away from my PC for a while and the site discconects me for idleing.....when I come back I can queue whatever folders and files I want and download them....After being allowed in the Server again of course......

With FlashFXP once I get disconnected from a site, all the files and folders disappear from the connected sites view pane....I then have to connect again to get a full list and if i'm away again for some reason I might miss the connection again....

My question is therefore..Is there an option in FlashFXP so that once you connect to a server....It leaves the site Index files and Folders in view on the connection pane even when you get disconnected from a server.....

Hope that is clear....

Any assistance greatly received....

Go to Options/Preferences/General

Take a look at 'Ant-idle Keep Alive' section.

yes, as long as you are connected flashfxp will show you dirlist.
if you get disconnected that list is cleared.

Is there any way to keep the dirlist in view even when you are disconnected...

currently there is no way. this has been suggested many times and is on the to-do list for the next version.
