Welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com]!
The greyed-out box sounds like a permissions setting on the client's machine. If this is a personal machine, then you may have to walk the client through whatever browser settings might apply. If it is a corporate machine, that may not help, as the administrator may have disallowed FTP access.
You could also have the client try some other FTP site to prove that it is not a problem with your site.
