My upload_max_filesize is at 5M,, post_max_size at 8M, and memory_limit is at 32M. >From the docs: post_max_size integer Sets max size of post data allowed. This setting also affects file upload. To upload large files, this value must be larger than upload_max_filesize. If memory limit is enabled by your configure script, memory_limit also affects file uploading. Generally speaking, memory_limit should be larger than post_max_size. When an integer is used, the value is measured in bytes. You may also use shorthand notation as described in this FAQ. If the size of post data is greater than post_max_size, the $_POST and $_FILES superglobals are empty. This can be tracked in various ways, e.g. by passing the $_GET variable to the script processing the data, i.e. , and then checking if $_GET['processed'] is set. I'm jumping in here late, so I haven't seen previous posts. Another possible place I have seen limiting post/upload sizes: There is an Apache directive called LimitRequestSize or somesuch which will take precedence (silently) over any PHP max post size you set. I found this set once before in an <apache_root>/conf.d/php.conf file that I eventually found. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
