What shortcut coding do I use to set up a shortcut in Object Dock that will log me into my ftp server?

I tried helping with this one but ended up not helping much. He tried to put

ftp : //user: pass @ ftp.server.com

(without the space, of course) into the shortcut path but it just glowed at him. His username has a couple @ symbols in it so that may or may not be gumming things up.

ah, yes. The @ symbols in the username are most certainly the problem. He might be able to use the escaped version of an @ symbol which is & # 3 8 (minus spaces of course). Hope this helps..

Hi everyone, I just tried the escape @ idea and it glowed at me and did nothing.

Make a shortcut with link: iexplore, and arguments: ftp:// user : password @ ftp. whatever. com/ (take out all the spaces in that)
