How does netfirms (netfirms.com) rewrite the html files (to add the advertisements) after users have uploaded the files using FTP? I know how this can be done if the files were uploaded using web interfaces, but I just can't figure out how they do it when files are uploaded using FTP...


Thank you.

They're probably not rewriting them right when the files are uploaded, but rather when they're being presented to the user. I bet they're using something similar to mod_layout (http://software.tangent.org/projects.pl?view=mod_layout) to add the advertisements. Hope that helps.
