Need Information On Upload Script To Server

[Distortion]

On request of my brother I made a simple script that allows users, after they've entered the right passwords, to upload a small file to an extern server my brother rented.Now this script works as long as the script is in the same folder as the files have to go, but the problem is that that folder cannot be accesed with the http protocol. How can I still let someone upload a file to any given part of the server that cannot be accesed via the internet, because putting everything in the part of the server that can be accesed via the internet would allow anyone to see the information in those folders which is undesired.

Wouldn't you just put the script in a web-accessible directory but have it save files somewhere else? There's no rule that you have to save files in the same directory.
