Form with file upload to server

[IrishDoc]

I hope that I am going to ask this correctly, so here goes.

I want to create a form that has the ability to choose at least one of three file type options to upload to the website host. Then I want the form to send a email containing all the other pertinent information and a link to the file that was uploaded, in-order to download it.

The reason I am needing this is the file uploads are going to be quite large and either a link to download it or through ftp would work better for my client.

Nobody can point me in the right direction to look for what I am wanting??

what skills do you have and have you googled this?

I only ask because when I did I found an entire free script that not only let me upload a file, in this case a picture, but resize it and rename it. the resizing being the bit I didn;t know how to do

some extra bits of php and I was away

I suspect on a forum like this you have to make some of the running and not just hold your hand out expecting a fully working script to be delivered

that's the link I used, it's php and gives you the code to upload a file, you don;t need to resize, I'm a simpleton with php but managed to get it upload three files from a form and rename them and put them to a folder on the server, I'm sure there's more specific bits of code out there if you look

If you have any coding experience, it's simple enough to make the form; just remember to make the enctype "multipart/form-data".

The rest is all server-side code: PHP, ASP, JSP, ColdFusion, etc.

Thanks Tynan and Wolfshade. I did google it but got so many different answers I was sure where to start.
