There is a limit in the php.ini saying how big a upload can be. Also I beleive there might be a limit in apache, but I'm not sure.
But uploading 100mb files over HTTP is a very dodgy thing to be doing, if anything goes wrong the user has to start again. Downloading 100mb is no problem, but uploading I would advise you to use FTP or SCP. If you have problems with them uploading in the wrong place, well how about you have PHP Script that tells them how to upload, and exactly where to place it, something as simple as saying upload to ftp://blah.com/yourName/ Hope this helps Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jimmy Brake" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 27, 2002 6:30 PM Subject: [PHP] uploading + downloading Large files ... > Hi! > > My users need to upload and download large files (100 + megs).
