It is often neccessary for a web master to transfer files from one site to another. Whether it be to install open source software or to move a site, the ability to transfer a file directly from one web server to another can be a real time saver. This is where this PHP script comes into play. Once uploaded onto the destination server it should be accessed using your browser. It will display a form in which you can enter the details of the source file and server and it will download the file directly from the source file server onto your server.

One of my favourite all time games transport tycoon is now available for free on the Internet! Transport tycoon is a classic game that I used to love playing as a kid. Its a strategy game where you play as the owner of a transport company. You have to develop transport routes between towns and ship cargo and passengers. As a player you can transport raw materials to factories and power stations. You can also transport finished goods to developed towns. You can build airports, train stations, docks and bus stations and transport goods and people by land, air or sea. And as with every business you'll have to deal with competitors who try to take over your market share. Its is indeed real time strategy gaming at its finest!

This is an addictive free and open source game. The idea behind crack attack is that you have a mass of blocks of different colours. More blocks are added to this mass from the bottom of the screen. The aim of the game is align three or more blocks of the same colour to eliminate them. To do this you can only switch two adjacent blocks at a time using the spacebar. Sometimes more blocks fall from the top of the screen and you have to eliminate those too. The game ends if the mass of blocks exceeds the height of the playing screen. The game features eye pleasing graphics, simple controls and multiplayer options.

File Transfer Protocol is a set of rules by which files can be transferred between computers. An FTP client such as filezilla is used to upload and download files from remote servers. I use FTP to upload files onto my website host's webserver. I was on the lookout for a free FTP program. I had heard a lot about this program and so I decided to try it out.

Filezilla is an open source program. Filezilla's site manager can store connection details for a number of ftp sites. You can even organize ftp sites into different folders. It remembers the passwords too. Filezilla automatically detects the file type and sets the correct transfer mode. It has two panes for local files and remote files. You can drag a file from your local directory to the remote directory view or vice versa. In my opinion filezilla compares well to the commercial program wsftp. However it does have its disadvantages. Its a bit of a hefty download at more than 3MB.

The filezilla homepage is here. You can download it here.
