You have all your answers there:

Not too sure on this one, but I think you need to modify the max file size attribute in the php.ini file settings. I could be wrong though.

Uploading with PHP has a few issues.

1) upload_max_filesize This is how big the size is
2) set_time_limit ... this governs how long the script will execute.. which also means how long the upload will take.

If you need to make a really nice UI for uploading look at http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/uploader/ Comes with a progress bar

If you read the 20 first lines of the manual link I've posted, you will (all) see that you have a part of the answer.

You have 4 .ini parameters, and one in the form that makes the upload that can influence the script.

And set_time_limit is just one of them.
It's not the only parameter to be changed in the case of an upload. You have to set max_time_input as well.

Change the following in your php.ini file:

max_upload_size (default is 2MB)

memory_limit

post_max_size

max_input_time

You may also want to add

PHP Code:

set_time_limit(0); 


to your upload script.
