Type the Ftp:// address into your brouser, log in, select the files, delete them, and start from scratch

There is no option to deletee in my browser


Im using Iweb and wanna delete stuff off the server, so do i need to download an ftp client?

Download an FTP client such as File Zilla... this will allows you to add/delete multiple things aswell as many other options.

there wont be a "option" to delete

Just highlight the files you want to delete and hit the Delete button, if there are no files, nothing was uploaded in the 1st place

Yeah Filezilla is ok. I use FTP Voyager for business. AFAIK all decent FTP clients do the job. Browsers FTL.

Use Windows Explorer - rather than opening IE and going to the ftp address, go into My Computer and then go to the FTP address.
