In IE explorer, you can view an FTP site as an explorer window. This enables you to copy files to that FTP site. I cannot find this option on Mozilla, so I can download from, but not copy to FTP. Is there a way to do this?

Firefox only includes basic FTP support, if you want fuller support you can use the FireFTP add-on.
