Hi,
I want people to be able to download project files (the content of these files doesn't matter) from my website for use within an application. Then, when they have made their own project files, I want them to be able to upload them to my site. The project files recently uploaded by one user will then be available for download by other users.
Can someone point me in the right direction of what technology to use? I am an experienced Java programmer, but as for web pages I only know basic html so far.
For the project file upload, I will have a page on my site with the following:
* A project name field
* A project language field
* A project Author field
* A 'Browse' button which opens a dialog for the user to locate the project file on their computer.
* An 'Upload' button to upload the file to the website.
For the project file download, I will have a page on my site with the following:
A table with three columns; project name, project language and project author (the table content should be sortable by each column).
A row in the table can be clicked on to download the project file for that row.
I am obviously not looking for code etc but general advice and tips about what sort of technologies I need to research.
Thank a lot,
Jim Morrison
By the way: I am looking for the simplest solution possible due to my lack of experience in this area. Cheers
