Uploading Various File Sizes

[ihenman]

I am trying too create a script where a user can upload multiple sized PDF files. I know the easiest way too allow this is too increase the File size limit in my PHP.ini ...but I would like too avoid doing this and create a way that this no longer needs to be done.

I am guessing the best way too do this is by using a FORM that passes the file too a CGI script...which is not limited too the PHP.ini limitations.

Now my question is does anyone know a way I can do so with PHP? I'm pretty sure that a straight Forwad File Copy, and the PHP FTP functions are both limited by the restriction in the PHP.ini file.

Is there any other way? If not can someone reccommed where I should begin looking... for another solution

If you're using Apache, you could look into modifying the local directory's .htaccess file to include a directive that overrides the file size limit in the php.ini file.

Other then that, Perl might be looking pretty good if you're willing to go towards a CGI workaround...
