Well, I was just quoting from the manual, so that sounds worthy of a bug
report in itself -- either the manual is wrong, or the behaviour of PHP is!

No, there mustn't -- this I am sure about.  As I said before:

Re: [PHP] upload_max_filesize + ini_set

2002-12-20 Thread electroteque
here is a sample htaccess file with ini rules

php_value register_globals Off
php_value track_vars On
php_value arg_separator.output "&"
php_value arg_separator.input "&"
php_value upload_max_filesize "3M"

i get 3M returned as the upload_max_filesize so it does work

No can do -- as all file upload activity takes place before your script even
starts executing, you can't use ini_set on this.

In fact, upload_max_filesize is listed in
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php as being a PHP_INI_SYSTEM
level directive, which means it can be set only in php.ini or httpd.conf (if
using Apache) -- it's not even settable in .htaccess files.

Cheers!
