I am trying to turn off safe mode using ini_set()
but I still get errors when trying to execute functions that can be effected by safe mode.
Why isn't ini_set() working?

ini_set() doesn't work on all ini directives. It certainly won't work for safe_mode or it would sort of defeat the object of safe mode on shared hosts

Damn, safe mode is getting in the way of so much that i'm trying to do. I can't turn it off through php.ini either because I don't have access to restart apache.
I'm assuming there's no other way to turn it off?

safe_mode has a PHP_INI_SYSTEM setting which is defined as "[PHP_INI_SYSTEM] entry can be set in php.ini or httpd.conf"

Does that mean, if it can be set in httpd.conf it might work from a .htaccess file?

Nope.. it would require PHP_INI_PERDIR to support .htaccess.
