Need some help please

I have a script that allows users to upload pics to a directory that i have chosen, only problem is the dir is protected and it cant be written to, how do i set the dir so that the script can copy the file without having it prompt anyone for passwords?

-Thx

Protected how? I don't think htaccess protections prevent file transfers.

when someone trys to use the script, they get this error

"Warning: copy(/home/evilpre/public_html/victoriam/userpic/picture_189.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/evilpre/public_html/victoriam/userpic/do_upload.php on line 82
Couldn't copy the file!"

CHMOD the directory with the permissions that script needs. Most likely either 0666 or 0777.
