Hello
I am very new to all things Webdesign! But, I am a keen learner and no challenge is too small!!! My first task to get to grips with is configuring a form within my website that allows only authenticated users to be able to upload and download files. I'm assuming I need to create a mySQL db on my webserver that will hold the user accounts and then create a php script to call upon this database when required!
I guess the next question is, am I close? If so, how would I go about each step? And if I'm way off the mark would someone please point me in the right direction?
Gratefull of any responses, and thanking you for your time.

The implications of file uploading are best prepared for by reading the manual page. http://fr.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
Absolutely the best resource, tough going but you will learn a lot.
Why not get that going first, and it will chuck a lot of security issues up in your face, about checking error codes etc.
Then come back and tell us about your access control or login requirements?
Good luck with it.
