The Browse Server tool grants you direct access to the file browser, or the server space, for your website. It provides an easy way of managing what is uploaded on your site's server space, as well as uploading new files.
The files you can manage and upload are:
.JPG, .PNG and .GIF files
.MP3 and .WAV files
.PDF files
.MP4 Files
etc.

Double-clicking a file works the same way.
Open - Open a file or folder on the file browser.
If selected for a file, it loads it within a separate pop-up window.
