    I've installed and set up a form on my server.  I can upload files via the form up to 2MB.  Anything over 2MB I receive an error message "error-your file has not been uploaded" 

    First I tried no limit on the upload file size, left the field size1 blank.

    Next I tried giving it a max of 25,000,000 bytes.  Entered that value into field size1.  Still the same problem.

    Next I tried on the demo site, and I still have the same problem.  Anything over 2MB will not send.

    I also tried it from different internet connection and computer, but I get the same error.

    Please help.  Thanks.

      I will take a look in to this, people have reported similar problems before but with different size limits though. You are saying 2MB, people previously said 5MB. My initial guess is that its a server thing. Maybe it times out on large uploads.

      Thought I would let you know...

      I contacted my server company, and they said that they don't allow uploads via php scripts over 2MB.

      So, others having the same problem probably have a similar limit on their server.

      Thanks for your quick response!

        Thanks for the heads up. I guess this confirms it that its a server side thing and not relating to the script.
