I want the ability to upload 10 or even 20 MB files.

Is this possible with PHP Upload?

Is there a way of automatically compressing files before uploading (without first using a dedicated program such as Winzip)?

Hi John,

As far as I know, the possibility to upload these large files is not dependent on the extension (apart from the Timeout that has been set) but has more to do with servers settings. If you like I'll try and upload a 20Mb file (using ASP Upload) and see what happens.
The PHP Pure Upload extension does not have an automatic compressing option.

Kind regards, Patrick

ini_set("upload_max_filesize", "30M");

In your upload page on the top of this page try to add the above.
If i understood well, your server only allows a limit of 2mb for a file upload at one go, so to modify this just add the above.
