    Hi,

    I'm trying to make a website for a company where the staff would be able to access a password protected photo page. Now, I would need to look into an option for the staff to upload pictures to that site from their PC.

    I don't have a clue about serverside scripts. I'm not even sure if mySQL would be required or just PHP although a database sounds necessary.

    I don't mind learning new scripts but I would appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction to a proper tutorial or something like that.

    Thanks in advance.

    Greg

    Why don't you use one of the many photo gallery scripts available?

    They are all slightly different. Are you looking for a free one? The paid ones look nicer and more complex. They are around $15-30.

    Hi Thanks for your reply,

    I wouldn't mind a free one to get started so I get my hands on the coding.

    Any nice free ones you know about?

    Thanks in advance,
    Greg

    Check out Scriptaculous, Lightbox 2.0, and jQuery. You can build one with those scripts, and it's super easy.

    You can not build these scripts with no knowledge. Its a lot harder than you may think at the beginning. Like learning while doing it. I started php myself by modifying existing scripts like good ol phpBB :)
    so take a free script and modify it as you want. They'r mostly open source and you have to leave the credits.
