How PHP deal with max file size overflows... To understand this note have in mind the configuration below: php.ini Settings upload_max_filesize = 1M My Script Settings <input type=HIDDEN name=MAX_FILE_SIZE value=2097152> <input type=FILE name=myfile> In my php.ini settings i had defined that 'upload_max_filesize' is equal to 1 MB, this means users cannot upload files greater then 1MB. In another hand, I had defined that 'MAX_FILE_SIZE' is equal to 2MB (2097152 Bytes). This means I can't send files greater than 2MB. And then ? Well, PHP handles max file size overflows in two differents ways... If the overflow applies to php.ini settings, myfile, myfile_name, myfile_size and myfile_type will receive null values. If the overflow applies to MAX_FILE_SIZE, myfile = none, myfile_name=name_of_file, myfile_size = 0 and myfile_type=file_type. This differences in how to handle max file size overflow it's important when we ought to write a file size control function. So Well, sorry about my poor english (I'm brazillian) and I hope this is useful for you...
