Have used WS_FTP (clumsy interface) and CuteFTP (it's okay) but
Filezilla tops them both.
If I understand you correctly, you'll probably just use FP to edit pages
locally on your computer (either disk-based or with a web server
installed, depending on your needs) and then FTP your updated files from
your computer to your server. At the most rudimentary level, FP
extensions allow you to edit files directly on the server or to move
files easily (via Publish Web) to a production environment (ie, public
web site). Without the FP server extensions you have to use something
like FTP to copy files to the web server.
