am using php on apache server to upload mp3 file .how do i increase the memmory limit to 16m.
ive tried putting this code [ini_set(”memory_limit”,”16M”);] at the top of my php code but it gives me this error.

Notice: Use of undefined constant ”memory_limit” - assumed '”memory_limit”' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\sen\upload.php on line 59.

There seems to be something unusual about the quote characters you're using around your strings. PHP doesn't seem to recognize them.

Does the character you're using have a decimal ASCII value of either 34 or 39?

ini_set(”memory_limit”,”16M”);

the error is as follows n doesnt say anything about the characters

Notice: Use of undefined constant ”memory_limit” - assumed '”memory_limit”' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\job11\upload.php on line 59

as sleipnir214 says - you are using stylised quotation marks. you must use " or '. php is recognising the stlised marks as part of a constant and looking for a constant by that name. failing to find one it then assumes you've mistyped and assumes a string. so php would be trying to set the ini-value of ”memory_limit” rather than memory_limit.

try copying and pasting this:

ini_set('memory_limit','16M');
