Im new to PHP so please be gentle...

Im trying to make a script that allows a user to enter a user name and pass, but no path, the path should be hidden from the user.

I want them to only be able to view whats in the folder I direct them to and upload a file plus not be able to browse, edit or create other folders.

All the scripts I found allow the user to insert a path to the server and allows them full access to all the folders, which I dont want.

Can I do that? or am I asking to much?

Samples would be nice.

Thanks
Kam

hello kamui,

a part of your answer:
- identification of user
- read all the files/directory of a directory
todo:
- read a file for the transfert
- display only files on the list (actually all elements appears file & dir.)

find it on http://fpepito.dyndns.org/php/test2.php

see you, and hope that help you,

<?

$logins = array(
"user" => "php",
"login" => "pass"
);

# quick check of user
function check_user ($log, $pas) {
global $logins;

if (($logins[$log] == $pas) && !($log == "") ) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}

# read directory
function read_dir ($path) {
global $PHP_SELF,$login,$pass;

$ls = popen ("/bin/ls $path", "r");
echo "The link does not open the file
\n";
while (!feof($ls)) {
$buffer = fgetss($ls, 4096);
#here the link to read the file
echo "$buffer
";
}
}

if (isset($login) && (check_user($login,$pass)==1)) {
echo "welcome $login
";
read_dir ("/var/cache/man/X11R6");
} else {
echo "for test try:
\nlogin = user
\npass=php
\n";
echo "\n";
echo "Login :
\n";
echo "Pass :
\n";
echo "\n";
