Does this service allow the editing of the php.ini config file?

No hosting service lets you edit the php.ini file, its a system file you need root access (ie. your own server) to edit it.

Please explain what you are trying to do, there is probably another way.

Oh, I was following the instructions that Coppermine provides. And it said that by editing the php.ini file, you could change the allowed file size, etc.,etc.

I installed my gallery, the problem now consists that it won't allow uploads. The admins said to edit the php.ini, but by what you just told me, I guess I misunderstood them.

No, no, I only allow picture uploads on my gallery. My members will have to find their own way of uplaoding larger files.

You cannot upload any files bigger then 100KB with php scripts that you install. You can upload files upto 2MB using our file manager or ftp.

Acually this is not true,

godaddy.com webhosting lets you have custom php.ini.

don't ask how they do it, but they do.

I don't think they do,

Ive did some searching on this and i found that if you copy a php.ini file in your web space and change it to what you want, php will search your webspace and use that one instead of the hostes defaults.

Heres a better one that tells about it, and i saw that site5.com is pretty much doing this.

That only works when php is run under cgi, which is very slow.
