Been doing pretty much the same thing except with Apache, and found a
PHP tutorial at Melonfire <www.melonfire.com> that was very helpful.
Look under the title "Beam Me Up, Scotty."
It actually invokes ftp on the server, so that might be a stumbling block
for you, but last night I got it debugged (my PHP file size limit was
set too low) and cleanly uploaded a few files over 50MB in size. Now I
just have to fix my separate download CGI to recognize files with embedded
spaces in their names.... Anyway, good luck!
