Simple FTP question

Hi Folks,

I think this is very simple...

I am able to connect to the http server that stores my web site, using the Unix ftp command.

But there is one simple problem:

my local folder where I store my files is at:

~/sites/

And, everytime I type on the ftp prompt:

get nameOfFile.html

The file is downloaded to:

~/nameOfFile.html

instead of

~/sites/nameOfFile.html

Question:

Is there a command I can use to specify the correct destination?

Thank you for your kind attention.
