The host name or IP address of the FTP server.

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid hostname or IP address>"

The port number of the FTP server. Usually the default FTP port is 21.

Default value: "21"
Valid values: "<valid port number>"

The password for the FTP server account.

Default value: ""

If set to "true", all data connections will be outgoing. UnlimitedFTP works through firewalls when this value is set to "true". If you are using an FTP proxy, set this value to "false".

Default value: "true"
Valid values: "true", "false"

If this value is set to "true", UnlimitedFTP will automatically connect based on the connection credentials supplied in the above parameters. The default value is "false".

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

If this value is set to "true", UnlimitedFTP will automatically ask the user if they would like to reconnect after a time-out has occurred, or they have been disconnected for some other reason. If "autoconnect" is set to true, it will log them directly in to the server. If not, the user will be presented with the Connect dialog, pre-populated with the connection info.

Default value: "true"
Valid values: "true", "false"

If set to "true" you must pass encrypted user/pass/server parameters to UnlimitedFTP, which will decrypt them and perform the login. The encryption is based on a key value that is specified by the "ek" parameter below. To encrypt parameters you can use encrypt.html that was downloaded with UnlimitedFTP. This provides at least some measure of protection from prying eyes, and people who love to snoop through your HTML.

Although this seems very un-secure to include the encryption algorithm along with the applet, keep in mind this is only a way to hide login credentials from users who try to view the HTML source of your page. Determined hackers will easily be able to sniff the network to retrieve user and password info regardless of the encryption done in the HTML.

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

This parameter works in conjunction with the "encrypt" parameter. This is the key that is used to encode/decode the string value you pass to the user, pass, and server parameters. Here is an example configuration. In this example, the server/user/pass strings are 192.168.1.100/anonymous/uftp@unlimitedftp.com respectively. This illustrates how the parameters will look to anyone who inspects the connection values in your HTML:

var server = "8I7BLHN;8I8@5";
var port = "21";
var pass = "|vy&[)&yp*p&jx#((;j,t";
var user = "h~t$6!=$z";
var autoconnect = "true";
var autoreconnect = "true";
var passive = "true";
var encrypt = "true";
var ek = "encryptkey";

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<string value>"

This value (in milliseconds) specifies how long UnlimitedFTP will try to connect to an FTP server before giving up and timing out.

If this value is set to "true", UnlimitedFTP will use the SOCKS proxy server and port specified by the "socksProxyHost" and "socksProxyPort" parameters.

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

SOCKS proxy server location.

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid hostname or IP address>"

SOCKS proxy server port.

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid port number>"

If this value is set to "true" and socksproxy is set to "false", UnlimitedFTP will use the FTP proxy server and port specified by the "ftpProxyHost" and "ftpProxyPort" parameters.

Valid values: "true", "false"

FTP proxy server location.

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid hostname or IP address>"

Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid port number>"

Can be either "asc","bin" or "auto", you can set the default file transfer mode. When this parameter is set to auto, UnlimitedFTP will set the transfer mode automatically by comparing the file extension to the list of file extensions specified in the "asciiextensions" parameter below.

Default value: "bin"
Valid values: "bin", "asc", "auto", and "macbin"(MacOS only)

If this value is set to "true", UnlimitedFTP will hide the ASCII/BINARY or TEXT/DATA/MACBINARY radio buttons.

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

Transfer all the files with these extension in Ascii Mode. Used in conjunction with "ascbin" parameter when it is set to "auto".

While using the "Sync" button, if a file exists on both the local and remote file system, this parameter determines which file is considered to be the master file. The other file will be overwritten. If the value is set to "local", any remote file that exists on the local side as well, will be overwritten by the local version.

Default value: "local"
Valid values: "local", "remote"

If files have not been modified they will not be transferred. This is determined by comparing the size of the files, and optionally the date/time of modification of the files. If you want to use date/time you must set the "incdatetime" to "true".

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

When doing incremental transfers, this parameter determines whether to use a date/time stamp to compare files. This is optional because the date/time stamp can vary greatly between the local time on your PC and the time on the FTP server. For this reason, when using this feature, you should also use the "timezonecomp" parameter to compensate for differences in time between the local and remote file systems.

Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"

A value in minutes that specifies a time difference between the local file system, and the remote file system. For example, is you are in the New York, and you are connecting to a an FTP server in Los Angeles, you would set this value to -180 to compensate for the time difference because LA is 3 hours (180 minutes) behind NY time. Conversely, if the FTP server is located in NY and you are in LA, the value should be set to 180 because NY is three hours ahead.

Default value: "0"
Valid values: <integer value in minutes>
