Thus if you're trying to upload a 10MB file you would probably have to increase the memory_limit to 18MB to be on the safe side. > as to the question if I should use FTP, yes I can and do for most, but I > am trying to get this working for most as this is a lot easier for > people to send files, so if I can get it working for larger files then > things will fly Remember HTTP uploads doesn't allow you to resume transfer.
