how to upload file using password

FTP is much less restricted than an upload form. With ftp you can move, upload, download, and delete files. This is a level of access that you don't want your users to have. Uploads, on the other hand, can be very restricted (for example: only jpg's smaller than 80x80 pixels).

To secure an upload you protect the controller with an authentication library (there are literally hundreds of them on these forums). That means noone has access to the upload form unless they know the password.
