file uploader?

I would like my users to be able to upload files to my altervista site.
Is that possible? I obviously cannot modify php.ini
however, i don't know if remote uploading is by default disabled. I CHMODed my upload folder to 777 and believe I am making all the proper directory references in my php scritp. Yet no joy. So I ask: is file uploading disabled, and if so can it be enabled, at least for a subdirectory of a users (me) site?

You can upload files with a PHP script. Could you please provide the script you are trying to get working?

Ok, then I got it working. Thank you, I just needed to know if file uploading was disabled by you, and it isn't. Great!
