Thanks for the help Dan. Yeah it does what I need Thanks!

I don’t remember where I found the php script… do a google search for free php upload scripts.

Also check this out: https://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_file_upload.asp
this will give you the general idea…. and you can copy & paste some of it.

I had to dig around in my host control panel to install a php.ini file so I could make the upload max from 2mb to the maximum of 50mb.

I made a pop up window with the upload form that calls to the upload script. Then it puts all the files into a folder I designate… no ftp needed…

Sorry I can’t give detailed info… I had to do some trial & error but i got it figured out… you can too.. good luck Chandra!

I got it fixed… I was able to install a php.ini with the max upload size of 50mb. thanks Again Curtis!!

[Dan Danner]

Thanks Curtis… I just realized what I’ve overlooked… yes I am on a shared host… when I was messing with a wordpress site for a client I came across something that said my server would only take files >2mb.

So yeah its my host… I’ve been staring at code too long. I’ll check with my host to see if they can make it bigger.

many thanks Curtis!!

Ok I’ve kept on trying different php upload scripts and have narrowed down some problems… alot kkep giving me the “failed to change permisison to 777” error…. but I did infact change the folder’s permission in my http://ftp... i can upload a 1mb file but nothing over that size even though I’ve made it ok to upload 512mb files in the php script… for cry’n out loud I can’t figure this out.

I can read php but not write it… I know the code is ok.. its got to be my http://ftp... but wtf? the folder is 777… 1mb ok 2mb and over not ok even though the php says 512mb is ok? any clues?… anybody?

[Dan Danner]

Hey Thanks again Curtis!!

[Dan Danner]

Thanks Curtis,

I’ve been thinking about trying this concept out in wordpress. Though I’m new to wordpress I’m picking it up quickly. I’m able to to do alot of stuff automatically instead of manually in wordpress. Any thoughts on this?

[Dan Danner]

Hey Thanks for the fast response Curtis…And thanks for the links… just what i was looking for. Thanks Again!

[Dan Danner]

yeah after extensive testing i realized it was due to my own hardware issues and the unusual size that it was choppy. So i went with quicktime. Thanks for checking it out Fernando.

[Dan Danner]

Yeah thats what I thought I was gonna have to do… just call around and find out from actual stations.

Most of the stations I’ve dealt with still hold on to their ancient beta decks. Few accepted dvc pro, and even fewer would take a digital format. Have you had the issue where you try to ftp a show or video to a station but they don’t know what ‘ftp’ is? Thats always fun.

Thanks for the help.
