>How so, My ATT web does just this. I can send files to the server via a button which lets me surf for the file and then sends it to one of the selected directories. They simply check the information I enter and if the username and password match, they place a cookie on my hard drive, then let me copy to only those subdirectories. I think the code from Bob Archer will do what I need. I'm probably going to have to get some help on what to do on the CGI stuff though.

I think I am missing something here. Is this button on a webpage you are looking at in your browser?

How does the file copy happen? FTP?
