I've been trying to make a script which will allow users to upload files to my webspace. You see each user is given a bit of space to store signature pictures on, but everytime I try to upload it just creates a new empty file. Anyone got any php scripts for uploading files from a computer to an ftp site?

Thankies
Stevie

Well, you wouldn't have to technically right a script like that yourself. If you look around the web http://php.resourceindex.com is a good place to start, I'm sure you will be able to find a script that will fit your needs. but please be fully aware of what kind of security risks you're opening your site up to when you allow people to upload files via http through php or any other scripting language. and the files might not always work if your site is on a linux or unix machine for a variety of different reasons.

woops, I forgot to mention that if you upgrade to the full version of vbulletin, you have the option of letting registered members upload files ;)
