I searched the forums for this, so if its an old tired subject, sorry...

Is there a way to 'hack' FlashXP so that it keeps the local date/time of a file (on the client machine) when it uploads to the server? I already found the option to do this for files when you download them (retains the server's file date/time). Seems like a simple request... :D

there is no command to change file date/time on ftp server, so how can flashfxp retain it?
it'll be set to whatever time you u/led that file

I follow your logic, but I have used other FTP programs where the local date/time is retained. :o If it is impossible to do this with FlashFXP, just tell me and I'll go away. At least, I'll go away form this thread... ;)

what program can change file's time/date?
what command is it using? some proprietary server extention?

This option will be introduced into the next release v2.2

MxxCon the command is MDTM and support is determined via the FEAT command
