Thanks for the suggestion. You're right - it renames the original file, uploads a new one and then deletes the old copy. I checked a different client and that one simply issues a STOR command. I emailed the author a request to change this behavior. Thanks again Itai
Have a look at the ZServer logs, and see what it's doing. I'm guessing that it's deleting the object, then creating it again, when writing it out.

Itai Tavor wrote Hi,
I'm using an FTP client called RBrowser in Mac OS X. When I update any Zope object with this client (DTML Method, Python Script) it gets converted to a DTML Document. I remember that this used to be a Zope problem, but that it was fixed, and indeed all other FTP clients I tried don't have this problem. So obviously this is a problem with this specific client.
Can someone please describe what an FTP client needs to do - or not do - in order to be compatible with Zope, so I can forward this information to RBrowser's author and get him to fix the problem?
TIA, Itai
