What?
apache = web-based (http)
vsftpd = ftp

By web-based, you mean something a user can use in their web browser, correct? Are you looking for a php script which lets you browse, download, and upload files? Or are you looking for a java applet which functions as an FTP client which supports SSL encryption?

I wanna access ssl based FTP through browser like IE, Netscape or firefox etc.

You mean like this?

I don't think any browser will do this by default. Do YOU want to do this, or do you want your users to be able to do this?

I'm not familiar with any, but a quick google search gave me a few possibilities such as:

I asked in my first post if you wanted an applet!
I use uber-uploader with SSL through apache instead of FTP, but I don't require browsing, downloading, or authentication. My only requirement is javascript. If you want to use SSL over FTP, your clients will need an FTP client, java, or a browser add-on.
