I can't get files from an ftp site:

> Can't you use wget?  Or links?

I managed at some point to download index.html from the ftp site in 
questions (667K, oor 667 bytes?) and it was full of javascript.

wget student1.wccnet.org  may have been what got index.html.  I don't want 
index.html, I want to get files from a student's directory, which I cannto 
access without loggin in somehow, and I don't know how to log in with 
wget.  Is it possible?  This is NOT an anonymous ftp site, it is set up 
specifically for students to get homework and things from and post files 
to and requires logging in.

Then I tried links   g   ftp://student1.wccnet.org 
and got to a screen with a login link but when I click on it I get a blank 
screen.  If I just tab down to it, at screen bottom links displays a long 
URL with some numbers and javascript:StopHealthApplet and more 
numbers.....

Do I need javascript to log into this ftp site without an ftp program?
