I want to create a file upload which allows user to post directly in the webpage and to see their post in the webpage they have posted.
An example is Facebook which allows members to post their messages and it will appear in the homepage when you login.
Anyone knowing the code,please post it below or email me @ ratherheyutifatyahoo.com.sg.

There are two ways to do what you want and neither is easy. You can write your own custom scripts and html with php and a database or you can use open source software made for that purpose such as Joomla, Wordpress or Drupal. All three and others use php and mysql databases to save the post and comments for display.

So there is no code that one can just "write" for you to get what you want. My suggestion is google Wordpress, download it and give it a try. You will also need additional software for local testing unless you do all the developing on a live server.
