PHP

Adding images to a blog post, but selecting from a server directory?

Hey all, I have built a simple website for a client, using PHP. The website includes a custom built content management system, where the client can add blog posts, users, categories (for the blog post) and a media section where the user can upload images to be used in a blog post.

The problem I have is, how can i have a button on the add post form to be able to browse the server side image upload directory?

any suggestions would help!

Did you find a solution? I think you would have to include the images directory in www, restrict access, and allow an AJAX request from the blog.
