Have you considered some kind of solution using FTP? I don't know exactly how you would integrate that with PHP, but it's an option that is more suited to transferring large files. You might be able to set up a link from one of your pages and use PHP and/or a database solution to authenticate the user prior to accessing the link to the FTP server/folder. I'm really just throwing ideas out here without knowing their viability in your or any solution, but I thought it might give you another option. -----Original Message----- From: Baroiller Pierre-Emmanuel [mailto:baroiller@daoditu.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2002 4:42 AM To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: file upload and php (Not a begginer question!) Hi, everyone know how to upload files from the browser to your web server using multipart-form method with move_downloaded_file() php function. But... It's a slow method for multiple files & huge files transfert. I'm currently working on a big photo album tool, and I want to provide user the ability to upload a lot of jpeg files in one time... The big problem with form is it's too slow... Does anyone know how to by-pass this ( with java or other tools )????? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
