Answer 1

It's not easy but I think it's possible. You need to set a custom FileSystemView JFileChooser.setFileSystemView . Try to use google search (filesystemview ftp). Probably you can find implementation of FileSystemView which supports FTP.

Answer 2

You can make use of FileNameExtensionFilter . Using it you can add extensions for selection.

JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("jpg", "gif");
chooser.setFileFilter(filter);
