Browser-based file upload no good? It works for YouTube....
Yes, perfect, but I want the files to end up on my server so to do what you're suggesting I'll need to run the YouTube software. :-)
What web application (server side) can I run to provide simple file upload facilities?
Ah sorry Chris - I should have explained that better, browser based file upload has been part of HTML/HTTP for many years, there are many tutorials out there on how to handle the server end:
The RFC from 1995: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1867.txt
A couple of Perl tutorials: http://www.perlfect.com/articles/upload.shtml http://www.sitepoint.com/article/uploading-files-cgi-perl
You can easily find examples in PHP, Java, ASP...
HTH, Phil.
