Hello All,

A user of an existing DNN site has asked me to upload a bunch of HTML files that they use as a race results system.  Using some combination of Excel and FTP they upload a summary sheet, and that sheet contains links to HTML files with the race results.  

 It works perfectly well in a traditional ftp type website. 

I have told them they need a separate hosting account and then they can use an IFrame to show the results site.

Am I correct?

Is it correct to say we cannot provide FTP access to a sub folder and then allow a bunch of html files to be uploaded to that folder?

I instinctively think I am correct in saying they cannot use DNN like they wish, but I just want to run it past here to be 100% sure.

thanks

Mark

Hello Sebastian,

thank you for that reply, it gave me a lot of options.

You are correct about the ftp, that would solve one part of my challenge,  i.e., getting the files up there.

AFAIK, the application works with a HTML file which forms a sort of Index page, with links to all the child pages (Files).

I have never noticed any means that I could have a HTML file load dynamically into a text/html module.  ie, the Index Page will change regularly.

It is quite a deviation from the DNN concept, I think I am better to advise them DNN is not the platform of choice for this application.

Thanks for your time Sebastian,

Mark
