File manager in a webpage?

[Jugernot]

I need some way to upload and download files through a secure webpage. Similar to how some large web hosts let you upload new files online through a webpage.

Any ideas or direction where I can start?

Thanks

btw: This will be my personal server at home running iis4.

there are two options, set up a ftp server, or set up a folder that needs a password to go into it, in windows just right click on the folder and go to sharing, set it where is ask for a pass word, create a link to it on the web and it will ask you for that password.

If just a personal server, you could give a shot at giving visitors write permission to a directory (and you can also control who is given that access/what account is used to access that directory).

Otherwise, look into asp (probably easiest with IIS) or other dynamic languages (and possibly javascript) to provide file-uploading scripts.
