[drupal-support] I'll try anything

[Dan Robinson]

I haven't tried the .htaccess route yet - but I have tried manually
setting the php values with "ini_set" which I believe does the same
thing - but I'll try the htaccess when I get a moment.  For know I've
moved back to Linux.  Thanks for your help.

Dan

p.s. - sorry about that re-send, my bad.
