As far as I am aware there's a tag in php.ini that can be changed to allow files as big as 40MB to be uploaded. It has a default setting of 10MB or so when php is first installed. Could you not change that value?

If someoen wants to upload a file, you guys give them the pass/username to upload to there, then change the pass when they're done, and then just cut+paste the files to the proper folder. That way, instead of MapMaker->Storm/Gnome -> FU, its just MapMaker -> FU, and then it saves some time and bandwidth for everbody ^_^
Yeah... we already have that, except Storm hasn't made the upload-file-from-ftp function available to the public yet.
Alantai: If we had root to the server, we'd get that fixed... as it is, our main server admin doesn't particularly like messing with that ini file, it seems...

Gnome, I am a php developer as well as the guys on my team at Myupb.com.
Have your admin get in touch with me and I can walk him through it.
It's very simple. Being afraid of something is not a good way to learn about it.

oh btw look at this
ini_set
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
ini_set -- Sets the value of a configuration option
Description
string ini_set ( string varname, string newvalue )
Sets the value of the given configuration option. Returns the old value on success, FALSE on failure. The configuration option will keep this new value during the script's execution, and will be restored at the script's ending.
Not all the available options can be changed using ini_set(). There is a list of all available options in the appendix.
upload_maxfilesize is one of the ints that can be changed with this function. Every time the function is run it chages the value for that particular instance.
So, as you see with this function, you don't even have to edit php.ini

Nice shot, Storm
But that's not the point! The upload form now accepts up to 50 MB uploads, so get off our backs!
Forboding: It's not that he was afraid or incompetent by any means, it's just that he takes a lot of prodding to get changes made. Finally got it done
