I think i've solved the madness. In the php docs, it states: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="_URL_" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000"> Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file"> <input type="submit" value="Send File"> </form>
With the MAX_FILE_SIZE _before_ the filename to upload. Maybe I've missed a post somwhere that already suggested this, but i tried rearranging the tag order, assuming that since this is just a suggestion to the browser, that perhaps moving or removing it might help. WOuldn't ya know it, butwhen i have the order like so: <input name="userfile" type="file"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000"> The upload works just fine. I did read one post on php.net pertaing to this subject that stated: "I am using PHP 4.1.1 on Apache / Linux. The upload procedure _requires_ that you have a line that sets the maximum file size in your form: <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">" So perhaps it may fail if I move these pages to a different server/php combo.
