DAVExplorer (webdav-client implemented in java). Type java -jar DAVExplorer.jar on the command-line to start the program.

MMVL has a webdav server for exchanging files. The files will be accessible by MMVL and its partners only. Please create directories, if you want to upload a bunch of files.

There are different methods to access the webdav-server:

  • You can use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher (see here for troubleshooting and different Windows versions). I doesn't work with older versions of Windows XP however, because they'll refuse to work without Microsoft Frontpage Server extension.
    • Open Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE)
    • From the MSIE Menu, select File => Open >
    • Type in the fully-qualified URL http://vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/dav/
    • Select the Open as Web Folder checkbox
    • Select the OK button
  • You can download and run a free Webdav-client from http://www.webdav.org/projects/
    • Download and install Java, if you don't have it already.
    • Download and install the DAV Explorer.
    • Double-click the file DAVExplorer.jar. The program should start now (see screenshot).
    • Type vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/dav/ in the URL-line and press the connect logo to the left of the input field.
    • Click on http://vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/dav in the tree view.
    • You can upload or download files by selecting File => Write File or File => Get File.
