 uplaod in php.ini file Not sure if this goes in here.... Problem: I have a cms i made and i have an upload page where the user can uploadimages to the uploads directory... The problem is on the hosting i have there is only a 20kb limit i think. I emailed the hosting company about this and they just said give the user an ftp program and allow them to upload via there desktop..... I dont think this is a viable option as I want them to be able to upload on the fly... So does any one else know of a way that files can be uploaded without having to install software on the users machine         |

| just be careful you aren't breaching any rules on your shared hosting plan and that it doesn't become a major resource hog on the system

| Yea I thought of that so i aint going to set it to big its just 20kb is not much of a file size and people who put up pics on the internet dont really know who to reduce the size of the image. Hopefully it wont do anything bad  |

| Your welcome. **points cheekily at ->  5M should be more than enough, most cameras take pics at about 3-4mb. Just make sure to resize the uploads with GD and use that one rather than the 3-4mb file they uploaded |
