File transfer over web

I need to transfer files (doc) from client to the LabView server. What would be the best and easiest way to do this?
The client doesn't have LabView installed on his machine. I know ftp is one way, but could it be possible to do this via web browser?

"best and easiest...."

Can you map the drive and then just use normal file I/O?

That's not an option. Im trying to prove that LabView can be a web server and build a Labview-based learning enviroment for a automation course. There are two interfaces for the teacher and students. The teacher needs to give assingments, which students can read with a browser and send their answers (text file) somehow directly to the server from their local machine.
The clients are on LAN. The interface should be made as easy as possible to use. I have the Internet Toolkit.

Also the teacher should be able to put an expiring date for the assingments, see how many answers there are on the server and see who has returned their answer.
