Thanks for your link to set_time_limit( ) Jay. However, I tried adding the set_time_limit code into my page that processes the uploaded file and I am still getting the timeout. I have also tried adding the set_time_limit code onto my page with the HTML form that calls the upload script page. I get the same timeout error. For Firefox and Netscape: "Alert: the document contains no data." Internet Explorer just brings up a dead page after 5 minutes. Here is the code I used at the top of my PHP page that processes the uploaded file: set_time_limit(2000); Maybe I have to add the set_time_limit code to the HTML page with the form? But how do I do this? Any ideas? Thanks a bundle!

The user can browse their computer and upload a file. It works great, except for large files, where the browser will timeout. The timeout appears to happen after about 5 minutes. Any ideas on how to get around this? Ideal solution would be on the server side b/c I don't want to have my users set a browser option. Thanks a lot!
