Using FTP file upload in a script

Post by TonsOfFun »

Hello all,

Here is my dilemma. I have a client that wants to be able to upload videos to his server. The issue is that the web host does not allow file uploads over 10mb and most of the videos are well over that limit.

I saw that it might be possible to use FTP to upload the script.

Is it possible to use FTP to upload a file from a form?
Will that bypass the 10mb issue?
Do you know of any resources that will help me with this?

Not an HTML form. If you felt like learning some Flash or Java you could make something with those that goes to FTP, otherwise you'll need to find another method.
