If FileZilla exists, run script to download from FTP then launch installer(s) in orde
Hi

Just trying to work out a little script.

Here's the general idea I'm going for;

If FileZilla exists, continue, otherwise download & install FileZilla.

Then run a tool that will download a few files from an FTP Server (with resume if connection broken), to a specific location and show in a status-bar the progress.

I'd like the installer to then run each installer in order.

Could you please tell me how this could be done?

Thanks in advance,

Panarchy

To check if FileZilla exists, you can probably check in the registry. Ask the FileZilla people for details on exactly where to look.
To download from HTTP and/or FTP, use the Inetc plugin: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Inetc_plug-in
To run the installers from your temp directory, use ExecWait: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter4.html#4.9.1.4
