Does anyone know of a good client file manager using PHP?

Hi, I need a file manager that is purely web based and is client oriented. I need to be able to login as an admin and create a client account so that they can login and upload files to a particular directory. The client should also be able to create new folders in that directory, as well as deleting files. Cheers,

I use that myself. But I need one specifically for my client that is only for accessing files, nothing more. I could create one my self but I'm a little too lazy to do that :D

Depends on your needs and budget, you could get

A premium one: http://www.filerun.com/
Another one that seems good but it costs: http://www.xyplorer.com/
A free, open source solution: http://phpfm.sourceforge.net/
Another one free and open source: http://pfn.sourceforge.net/ (I'd go with this one it's prettier and your client would find it easier to use)

Thanks a lot! I'll try PHPFileNavigator first and then maybe check out the other ones. Cheers!

Downfall to web based PHP clients is unless you have access to configure your php config, you limit them on the size of files they can upload. I agree with just setting them up a FTP account and giving them a link to FileZilla or even php.net (which is online).
