You don't appear to have read what I said. A Java applet can use FTP to
upload the file - PHP does not get involved in that part. Once the upload
is complete the applet can POST to your PHP file giving it information
like where it's put the file and this other information you need to give
it so it can rename the file. This is the only bit PHP gets involved in
and it doesn't involve trying to upload 4 gig over a machanism that was
never designed for it.
Thanks again for replying.
I have read. I have been trying to find out way for last two days.
I can say about jupload and how it seems to work.
It uploads file to server in a temporary directory.
It has postURL parameter. Then it POSTS the data to php file.
Because it POSTS, the php configuration values comes into question.
Here is an example:
Settings in php.ini are 50M for upload_max_fisesize and 50M for
post_max_size.
I used japplet and uploaded a 51.89 MB file.
This is what is in error log.
[08-Jun-2007 03:06:29] PHP Warning: POST Content-Length of 54414946 bytes
exceeds the limit of 52428800 bytes in Unknown on line 0
[08-Jun-2007 03:06:29] PHP Notice: Undefined index: File0 in
E:\projects\ice\post_test.php on line 13
File0 is the first file in $_FILES array, as POST fails I don't get that
array.
I uploaded a 48 MB file and it worked without any problem.

Not at all true. A Java applet can use FTP to handle the upload and
still pass meta data about the file as an HTTP POST request. There is no
requirement to use HTTP to upload the file from a Java applet.
It is not about how data is going to be transferred but it is about php
having a limit on what it can accept as POST.
But we'll see how it works out. I'll let everyone know.
I am trying japplet for now.
