Upload Limits - Change in Code?We run a service for children who are off school for medical reasons, and we had a web-site that allows them to "submit" their work to teachers for marking. The site uses ASP code to upload the files into student folders and the staff retrieve it. It all works perfectly for smaller files, but if a student attempts to upload a file larger than 1Mb they get "Request object error 'ASP 0104 : 80004005' ". This appears to be due to a limit on the size of uploaded files (or the request objects that contain them), with a solution as described on this site (amongst others): http://www.dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.asp?NewsId=5424 As our site is hosted by a commercial hosting company, and we can't configure IIS, I was wondering whether there was a way to up the limit through code, like you can change the time-out period using Server.ScriptTimeOut? Thanks Andrew

It also appears as unmarked work on the staff page and when they enter their marks and comments they are saved into the database it feeds into the students' reports. Also, we'd rather that staff and students don't know each other's e-mail addresses and only communicate through our web-page so that we have more control and a record of what was said. Besides, we have other scripts that upload as well - such as for staff uploading the work in the first place, or adding pages to the web-site - that are suffering from the same problem. Andrew
