Page to Upload documents to

**dharrison** · #1 (**permalink**) 07-30-2007, 02:55 PM

Hello

I have been asked to carry out some work for a company who wants a members only page (password protected) where PDF .DOC documents can be uploaded and received by the website owner.

I can do password protected pages, (I've done them before and have the software) but how can documents be uploaded and received online? Is it a script or is special software needed or what?

Any help will be gratefully received.

Many thanks

It's done by using a script, http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp gives an overview of the PHP.

The site owner could then login with FTP and download and delete the files.

One thing is that if you store the uploaded files in the web root then if you are not careful anyone in the world can potentially download them.
