Hi , in fact it doesn't do much ( at least on the couple browser I tested it) : whatever you put as a limit the file will upload ... this is a p.. in the a... because if you do the check on the server it can only be done when the upload is complete : pretty unfair to tell the user that he has no more space when he spent 20 minutes uploading a file ( we use audio files and they might be fairly big) but apart from that I recently upgraded to 4.04pl1 and I have the same problem (which didn't happen before) that is described by Dhaval , running on Linux (RHT 7.0 with plenty'o patch ... , Apache 1.3.14) ... changing the max file size doesn't do much :-( the uploaded file seems to have 'type multipart...' and other junk caracters added at the beginning of the file after the copy (which returns a success error code !!!) it seems to be a bug in 4.04pl1 help .... -- Thierry TABARD Digital Sound Planet http://www.digitalsoundplanet.com ""Chris Lee"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 97jbpe$m17$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:97jbpe$m17$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > try droping the max_file_size entry, does it help?
