How do I change file permissions using my FTP client?

All your directories should have permission mode 755, as should all your executable CGI scripts. Ordinary HTML files can have permission mode 644.
In WS_FTP: right click on the file and choose "FTP commands", then "SITE". Type in:
chmod 644 filename.html
and press OK.
In CuteFTP: right click on the file and choose "Change File Attributes". In the manual section type 755 and press OK.
In Fetch: click on the file; choose "Remote", "Set Permissions"; for Owner, tick all three boxes; for Everyone, tick Read and Search/Execute; press OK.
In Anarchie: click on the file; choose "FTP", "Send FTP Command"; type in
site chmod 644 filename.html
and press OK.
