Uploading files is fully possible if using a browser who is smart
enough to understand that one can actually PUT files to a FTP URL
when using a proxy.. but the support for this is pretty sad looking
* Netscape 4.X knows.. just open a directory with a URL ending in /
and then select "File -> Upload" to upload a file.
* IE X.Y does not seem to know...
* Netscape 6.X seems to have forgotten what Netscape 4.x knew..
* KDE Konqueror does not seem to know.. (not even without proxy)
* Lynx do not seem to know... (not even without proxy)
* Links do not seem to know.. (not even without proxy)
I don't know the status of other browsers such as Opera or Mozilla..
