You could set up the directory on the server to be either:

1) owned by the user running the web server process and allowed user write access

or

2) be a part of the group that the user running the web server process is in and allowed group write access

For example, if the you are running apache2 and it is owned by www-data in the group www-group, you would set your directory:

chown www-data directory
chmod u+w directory

or

chgrp www-group directory
chmod g+w directory
