Are you meaning timeout limit? Not PHP script execution limit in php.ini? What I understand, the PHP script does not run until the file is uploaded to the server via POST.

(eg. upload 100Mb while > upload_max_filesize is set to 16MB) You will have also to consider the browser's timeout limit. Uploading a 100MB file via HTTP POST will probably take quite a long time that the browser will timeout and interrupt the transfer. I got a thought, but didn't try to check it out: If there's a way to split a file to small chunks (i.e 2MB a chunk), then you can use JS Remote Scripting (HTTPRequest) to upload the chunks one by one, and then append all chunks on server side and you get the 100MB file. This way you can also display a progress bar of uploading. Of course the chunks will be transffered like packets (in TCP), so each chunk will have an header that relates it to the original file. The part that is not well cleared to me is whether is possible to split a file into chunks using JS.
