RE: [PHP] Slow Upload

Hi, Thanks for the reply Michael. The intranet used by our client is a very fast one. I have personally seen files downloaded from the net in a blink of an eye. (Okay, Okay, I need to give numbers and not such subjective descriptions :). I'll provide the exact details later )But the fact remains that the client's internal network is indeed ultrafast. And since this application runs on the Intranet and not on the Internet I think it should be just as fast as their other applications. Am I wrong in expecting this? Please do let me know.

I have created many file uploads and of course it just depends on the speed of the users' connection. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Feroze Md.
