Okay..I found the requierd line in a google cached earlier version of the
wiki. I also did some more googleing and found that this has to directly
precede the file field. So, I now have:
<p><label
for="data_file_data">Data</label><br/>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE"
value="1000000000" />
<%= file_field ''data_file'', ''data''
%></p>
(I would have used <%= hidden_field ''MAX_FILE_SIZE'',
''1000000'' %>, but this
didn''t work either..)
For uploads greater than around 10mb, the upload still hangs and nothing
happens.
