There is a LimitRequestBody diretive in the HTTP config that controls
maximum content-length:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody

However, the default setting is '0' -- unlimited.  This limit can be
set in httpd.conf or in per-directory .htaccess files.

The default php.ini file contains:

    ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
    upload_max_filesize = 2M

so you're probably not running into that as a limit.  You might find
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php enlightening.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
