file uploading alternatives

Hi all,

 

I am developing a site where the user will need the ability to upload files to the server. These files could be up to 100MB in size. Unfortunately the server's PHP settings have an upload limit of 20MB so my upload form won't work on larger files. I have contacted the hosting company asking for the limit to be increased but they have said that it is not possible. I also have tried modifying the limit locally via a php.ini file and a .htaccess file, both of which have had no effect.

 

I have heard about using php's ftp functions as an alternative upload method although im not sure if this is possible without modifying the max upload setting.

 

Does anyone have any ideas of how i can upload large files without being able to modify the php settings?

 

Cheers
