 Hi List!

 Need can upload big files ( around 300MB ) the system must be easy of use (

 Was thinking in make it, using a form with post, and update the cfg files
 for can upload big files.
 But don't know how it going to work. I think that can give a lot of errors
 or be unestable.

 Just asking if anyone had a project like this one ;)

 Greetings!


I've got good experiences with http://jumploader.com
It's Java, and can do HTTP uploads  2Gb fine, with the partitioned php uploader

 using one of that components. or does anyone have another solution?

   Uploadify might appear to be purely Javascript, but it is in-fact Flash
 doing the actual upload work. I've used this before, and found it impossible
 to use without a mouse and defaults to a standard upload input element if
 you don't have Flash player installed on that browser. These might not seem
 like major issues, but I for one don't have Flash installed on my Windows
 partition (found it to be too much of a security risk) and there are plenty
 of people out there who can't use a mouse due to various disabilities. I'd
 definitely go with the Java one if you can, as this is more portable (I
 believe you can get them to run on iOS devices where Flash would be a no-go)
 and would allow non-mouse navigation.

 Having said that, the last time I used Uploadify was about a year ago, so
 things may have changed since then with regards to the non-mouse
 interaction.

 The last time I had to do something like this was for large video files
 which could sometimes go beyond 2GB. In the end I allowed the files to be
 transferred over FTP (with the same username/password that they logged in
 via the web interface), but also included a Java applet in the web interface
 as well so that it appeared to allow the upload as normal, but behind the
 scenes it was all FTP. HTTP isn't great for large uploads, but a protocol
 like FTP is perfectly suited for it.

The FTP functions in PHP are just for connecting to an FTP server from
PHP, which itself is run on a server, so you won't be able to use those
functions to allow people to upload files to your server.
