upload 1 GB files

[aswath satrasala <as...@hotmail.com>]

Hi,
We have a requirement from our website for the users to be
able to upload 1GB files.

Since the files are huge, can anyone suggest, what is
the best approach.

Right now, I am using JSPSmartUpload.  I would like
to know if JSPSmartUpload can handle 1GB files.

Please suggest.

Thanks
-Aswath

RE: upload 1 GB files

[Brandon Cruz <bc...@norvax.com>]

O'Reilly has an upload package where you can specify the size of the files
you would like to allow to be upload.  Most likely it will take a little bit
of customization to use with your specific application, but the source code
is free with the book and it is pretty self explanatory.
