I am trying to setup a website which will allow vistors (family members) to download video clips. The users will be complete computer illiterates, and therefore I want to use http as oppose to ftp (so they can simply 'point-and-click' to download). I cannot find any info on how to set this up. I want to use a webhosting company, as opposed to using my own computer as a server, because I do not have broadband/DSL available in my area. Do I need to use CGI scripts? Where are the web hosting companies that can do this? I need something affordable (no more than $15/month), and preferably little or no extra fees for repeated downloads. Any help/info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
