You'll need something server side, probably php.

google it
try php file uploader or something, you can find pre-made ones, or write your own if you know or want to learn php.

An extremely basic piece of code to upload files is....

Code:
<?php

if(!(copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "upload/" . $_FILES['userfile']['name']))) die("Cannot upload files.");

echo "Upload Complete!";

?>


"upload/" is the name of the folder where you want files to be uploaded to. This has to have the CHMOD 777.

You then need a form. Again, the below code will make an extremely simple form:

Code:
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
<INPUT TYPE=file VALUE="C:">
Select a file <input type="file" name="userfile"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Upload!">


PS - I have not tested this code so whether it works or not I do not know.
venc
ok, thanks! I will try it.
venc
it still didnt work. I really need help =(

Did you name the file upload.php and place it in the same directory as the page where you want users to upload from ?

To make myself clearer....

Save the following as upload.php

Code:
<?php

if(!(copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "upload/" . $_FILES['userfile']['name']))) die("Cannot upload files.");

echo "Upload Complete!";

?>


Create a page in the same directory where you want users to go to to upload files and use the following code...

Code:
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
<INPUT TYPE=file VALUE="C:">
Select a file <input type="file" name="userfile"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Upload!">


This can have any filename. If you wish to place the form in a seperate place then make sure you change the action="upload.php"

Next create a folder named upload in the same directory where the upload.php and the form os located. CHMOD this to 777.

--- I have just tried this and it worked for me

P.S - Please do not post another thread on the subject, it is not needed. It has now been trashed.
venc
ok, thanks, that is much clearer, I will go try it now
venc
it would work, but it show 2 upload forms, not one, but two, can you fix that?
venc
can you put the files on my site and make it work properley, if you will, pm me. I want you to because I just cant, because some how, even when I follow the exact instructions, it screws up on me
