Leighton, copy of post from James F, haven't had time to try it myself but I'm sure it works.
Hi All Just a quick note to let you know that I have reinstated the members upload area... the upload form is working again. I have changed it a little - it's now located at:- http://www.ozdat.com/members/ You no longer need a password to browse the files.. but you still need one to upload files.. same one as before:- username:- ozdatmember password:- datsunp510 there is still a 100k (approx) file size limit - so if you have something bigger than that, then email it to me and I will upload it. I think that about covers it... regards James ozdat.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Leighton Sent: Saturday, 9 March 2002 8:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Capacity issue how do i put it on the memebers area ill stick it there so you all can see I just know how to do it ?
