Re: [PHP] How can I auto upload a file to the server?

[Jason Sheets]

You might look at SCP using the PuTTY SCP or another SSH client to 
securely upload the file.  You could automate it in a batch file and 
make a short-cut to the batch file.  Doing this over the web is not a 
good method like John said.  If you use SCP you can setup an SSH key so 
that you are not prompted for a password, SCP was designed for this type 
of problem.

I want to have a link (shortcut) on my desktop when clicked it

web browser loaded with a remote .php script that automatically goes 
into
C:\data\upload_me.txt and uploads "upload_me.txt"

I know how to upload files using php with a "browse to file" html 
form, but
i want to skip the form and have the file just upload automatically 
when the
script is loaded.

I don't know how to make the .php script automatically grab the file 
from my
local box and upload it without any user intervention.


You can't. That would be a horrible security violation. Think of a 
different method.
