well, i suspect i am at a dead end. here is the layout of things.

we want to put up an internet kiosk at certain thoroughbred auctions to allow people to send ecards as well as contact associates. we have a web cam on the kiosk and a partner came up with the idea of letting them send photos of themselves as well. the problem is i cannot find a way to use the form type FILE without giving the user access to everything on the kiosk computer. try as i might i cannot get around that "browse" button. so i thought i would try the ftp functions which i am totally unfamiliar with. i do truly appreciate the time you and others took to look into this.

You can setup a apache and php on the kiosk machine. Document root will be the folder where the webcam stores images, or just one directory up. You can create a simple php script that will let them browse the pictures (only the pictures :)), or not so simple that will allow them to make some adjustments to the pictures using image functions. When everything is ready, with a press of a button then can mail the ecards. What would be done on the server will do the kiosk.
