There is set_time_limit() that works from the script as long as
safe_mode is not enabled.

you probably won't be able to edit PHP.ini with shared-hosting. The
other solutions, one I can think of it now - you can use PHP to
upload files from remote computer to the server at certain time,
and set schedule with cron to run your PHP scripts on your server.
Good luck

Thanks, Wolf. I'm going to have to do a lot of long processes --
uploads,
queries, and the like -- and I appreciate knowing that I can adjust
that.
Now if I can just find the PHP.INI file.... (Stupid GoDaddy-shared-
domains;
can't find anything on 'em.)

Go into your php.ini file and increase the script timeout length,
which
should allow the upload to finish.

Hi all:
I'm working on a project that requires frequent updating of a
large
amount of data to a MySQL database. Currently, I'm trying to
transfer a CSV
file to the server, have it process the file, and then delete it
once the
processing is complete. Rather than waste the up-front time of
having to
upload the file (which is currently timing out without fully
uploading the
file and I have no idea how to resolve this!), is it possible to
have the
server open the specified file remotely and read it using the
fgetcsv()
function? If so, how?
Any help you can give me will be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Jon
