选择文件夹路径以保存文件

Question

I am building an online storage site where users can upload their files (this part of the coding is done). After uploading files users must have an option to download them. this is where I'm stuck. I want to add code that will let my users see a dialog box saying to choose the path , where in the pc the file will download. similar to this image (given in the link)

my question is, can I build this dialog box in php? if it is possible in php then what function do I need for coding. please say anything so that I can find a point to began with.

---thanks.

This is something you (the programmer) don't have control over. When a file is downloaded by the browser, it's the browsers settings that define where the file is saved or if it's saved automatically w/o folder selection or lets the user select a target folder.
