WebDAV is a HTTP extension that makes the Internet a writeable medium by allowing files to be created, changed, or deleted over the ubiquitous HTTP protocol. WebDAV can be used to access your Filebox, transfer files to and from Scholar, or transfer files to a hosted site online. This example assumes you are using Filebox, but the instructions for Scholar or hosted sites are identical; just replace the URL with the one you are given.
