Joomla site

eXtplorer is a web-based File Manager that can be used to browse directories and files on the server and edit, copy, move, delete files; search, upload and download files; create and extract archives; create new files and directories; change file permissions (chmod) and much more.

eXtplorer can be used by the user to login to a FTP server (like net2ftp) and work as if he/she is using an FTP client. Access via WebDAV is also possible; however, it requires some extra work and a database. eXtplorer is released under a dual-license; one can choose to use the eXtplorer under the Mozilla Public License (MPL 1.1) or under the GNU General Public License (GNU/GPL). If one decides to distribute or use the eXtplorer under the MPL, the use of ExtJS Javascript library is not allowed. To run, this extension needs at least PHP 4.3 on the server and an up-to-date browser with Javascript enabled.

The main features of eXtplorer are:

copy and move files and directories by drag & drop
dynamic directory tree with on-demand loading of subdirectories
edit files (with Syntax-Highlighting thanks to EditArea)
rename, delete or create new files and directories
access files through FTP or directly (using PHP) to totally overcome permission and file ownership issues
upload or download files just as you like
create and extract archives (ZIP, Tar, Tar/GZ, Tar/BZ)
user management with different permission levels like "View only" or "Edit" and "Admin"
available as a component for Joomla! and Mambo

These features are packed into an intuitive layout that makes working with files very easy. Owing to the great ExtJS Javascript Library one can also drag & drop folders and files, filter directories and sort the file list using various criteria.
