Timeouts during large uploads, very slow queries etc

>I am running a simple Upload script in PHP using a HTML Form with a File field.  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?

I dont think this is just a PHP problem.
I 've had it with 2 other scripting languages.

AFAIK the client browser timesout rather than the upload application. ie the client's browser thinks
nothings going on and timesout.

I did read of a nasty fix, where you have a simple frameset where the app is in the main Frame and
there's a tiny "invisible"  frame where a piece of javaScript periodically refreshes or write's a
character to the frame to fool your browser.

Has ANYONE got any experience/views on this
