What do you mean by "upload string to an FTP server"?
Can you please be more specific?

If I try to grasp the intent of what you are asking, you would need to first create a simple form. The form could be really basic, asking a user to input of a single line of text, or even a number of inputs.

When a user hits 'submit', the form would upload the information to the server and store them in a CSV file (spreadsheet), or into a MySQL database. Now that the data is stored 'somewhere', you would view the stored data using one of the solutions offered above, by Pablo.

But I get the feeling that you are actually asking for something more, so it would be helpful if you could explain what you are actually trying to achieve. Storing and retrieving data is pretty straight forward, but what exactly is the application? There might be better ways of doing what you need.

There is no database nor MySQL, I just want to upload the text entered by the user in the text area to a txt file on the ftp server
- I want to receive the content of a text file from an ftp server, and put it in a label when a button is pressed. That's it

There is no standard option for this, because this is not a common request.

So the closest solution is to use a CSV file instead .

I am still confused by what you are asking. When you write "put it in a label" what are meaning. In HTML a label is used in form elements such as the input tag <input id="blue" value="colour"> the label is then written like
<label for="blue">Colour</label>
More information on this
HTML <label> Tag

In the software you can add this see the following

If this is not what you are referring to then are you talking about "Labels" that you stick to a "Package" or "Products" or "Goods" so that it describes its contents... As mentioned it is not clear and confusing to what you are really wanting.
Is this what you are asking Saving text from a <textarea></textarea> to a .txt
