I would like to have a form on my site where clients can upload their files so I can download them locally. Should I use PHP? ASP? I'm a bit overwhelmed about how to go about this.

egcomm, how do you load files to your server? If you use ftp then you have the capability to download the files already. There are lots of ways for users to upload files, and there are tons of articles and code samples all over the net. I use ASP and ASP.Net. Just about every ASP techie site that I've ever seen has at least one article on how to do it. Search on "asp" and you'll find plenty. Some of the sites have links to all the other asp sites. So once you get into one you have links to many others.
I knew there had to be lots of information about how to do it but I wasn't even sure what to look for. Thanks very much for the help!

Don't forget to make sure that the user can't upload executables or script files, or at least not to an area they can access!

I found some code on [freeaspupload.net...] and I've tried to follow the creator's instructions but I keep getting error messages. After I've chosen a file to upload, I get a "method not allowed" error. Is POST not allowed with .asp?
The test site is egcommunications.com/uploadtest2.htm Any suggestions?

Maybe someone here more talented than myself will respond. That sounds like a server error, a permissions issue.
