I think you meant "wouldn't". Anyhow yeah, that's what counting lead me to believe but I didn't want to throw away that work either ;-) I figured that maybe someone else might be interested in all the other stuff that gets opened up as well.

I meant "would", because I said "under 35kb", in which case, as the original poster says, files upload correctly. It doesn't make sense that he hits a filehandle limit for large but not small files.

Makeshifts last the longest.

Either I'm addled from cleaning dog poo (I was cleaning up a mess just now) and I've forgotten how to read English or you forgot a 'not'. You said that it would not make sense for there to be enough handles if the file size is under 35KB. I'm not sure what quantities of file handles have to do with file size anyway but that's separate. I always thought a single file handle can take any fize file absent any restrictions the OS has.

So... if I'm addled don't bother responding. It won't help.
