Xara online - Control centre - Web space ftp utility
I have opened my Xara Online account and a domain using Xara hosting. I'm using Xara DPX11 to create web sites. I need to be able to upload files, create folders, etc., but either I am missing something here, or Xara has the worst imaginable, unusable, basically embarrassing, utility I have ever seen. The only utility that I see is to login to Xara-online.com, click on Control Center, under Website M click on Open Web Space. Here is what I get, in German. I can't even scroll down the files. There are no features whatsoever other than + and delete. Try clicking on the boxes to put in a checkmark. It is hit and miss. Is this it? Am I missing something? Using IE11.

Compare this to the one below for Magix online, where I can do everything that I need to do. Note that I will need to create some folders for some widgets that I use. Easy in Magix ftp, but how can I create folders in Xara online?

Unless I am missing something here, Xara should have, at the very least, started with the Magix tool.
Thanks,
John

Thanks Acorn. I was just about to reply that I had found it and translated the German to English, and succeeded in created folders and uploading to them. Yes!
Only problem left is being able to scroll down to see everything. Even in full screen, I can only scroll down a bit. Under index... I have 105 elements, but I can only scroll down slightly more than what you see in my screen shot. Is there some trick to be able to keep scrolling down? The web page continues downwards, but I can't see it.
Thanks,
John

Two ways: mouse scroll button; to the right of the Properties dots, I have a thin grey vertical bar that I can click and drag.

See the scroll bar to the right of the dots in the image that I posted. I have 105 items but I can only scroll down what you see in the image plus a few more. Can you scroll down more?
Thanks,
John

There does appear to be issues in IE. I don't use my xara webspace but just looked at it and the scroll bars are there in FF but if I view it in IE i DO see the scroll bars but the file size windows are very narrow, only taking up a third of the available window.
Try launching it in a different browser.

Here's the difference I get.

@Egg,
You are quite right. I tried with Google Chrome and got the site in English and able to scroll down. I reported this to Xara.
Thanks,
John
