hi,

You cannot do this with a simple web form. borwsers upload files over HTTP. You have to either make use of an FTP capable applet (shameless plug: such as Rad Upload at http://www.radinks.com/upload/) or rely on what's commonly called a web based ftp client.

These clients rely on the browser to initially tranfer the file to the server using the HTTP protocol, then the server side upload handler connects to an ftp server and tranfers the files to that ftp server. There are several such scripts available as free downloads, however most of them are built with php.
