From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628 BuildID: 2001062815 When you're looking at the directory content listing apparently there's no way to choose multiple files (or select all of them) and download... you must download them one at a time... so I switch to IE and do this the most natural way... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to an ftp site 2. List the content of a directory with multiple files 3. Try to download them all Actual Results: You must download them one at a time Expected Results: You should be able to perform multiple selection just as in every decent ftp utility

Platform -> All?
spam: over to File Handling. i have not changed the assigned developer [or the other fields for that matter], so if anyone realizes that a bug should have a more appropriate owner, go ahead and change it. :)

-> ben, as part of the d/l manager stuff, I guess. Ben: No idea how to do this for html, but I can imagine the XUL viewer having an "download all selected files" option, which would just call the d/l manager. We wouldn't want to open multiple files at once... If you produce an API for this, then send this bug back my way.

Why was this resolved as duplicate of bug 102477? Neither the initial bug report there nor the fix has anything to do with multiple selects on ftp servers, as far as I can tell?
