I am trying ftp files that I upload to my web server that my website is hosted on. &nbsp;I can successfully upload the files to a directory on the C:\ drive, but when I try to ftp them and point to them in my code, I am getting the error stating 'C:\...' is not a valid virtual path. <br />
<br />
My site is hosted in IIS, so the web files are stored in that location. &nbsp;I am trying to point to a location that is not in the same root directory.<br />
<br />
I've tried ..//, ~/, and several other techniques, but I can't get it to work.<br />
<br />
Any Ideas?<br />
