Script Timeout Error
This error is caused by an upload taking a long time. The current limit is 1 hour. If it is going to take more then 1 hour to upload your file(s), you will need to separate your files into smaller files, and upload them one at a time. After you have posted the first file, the rest of the files can be uploaded as replies to the first post.

If you have a high speed internet connection and the file is too large to upload in one hour, you should consider putting the file on CD or DVD to share it with the rest of the team.

How To Make Zip Files
Zip is a popular form of file compression. A single zip file can contain multiple files and/or folders full of files at a much smaller file size then the uncompresed files. Below are instrcutions for making zip files with 2 popular application. There are many other applications that can create and open zip files.

Windows XP

The Windows XP operating system has support for ZIP files built in. Existing ZIP files will open like folders ("Compressed Folders"), and files can be coppied out of the "Compressed Folder" just by dragging them to an uncompressed folder.

To create a new " Compressed Folder":

  1. First create a blank Compressed Folder. In either " Windows Explorer" or
    " My Computer", navigate to the location where you wish to put your Compressed Folder. From the File menu choose New, and from the fly out menu choose Compressed Folder.
     
  2. When typing a name for the file make sure not to remove the ".zip" extension. Also for use on this site, avoid using spaces in the file name.
     
  3. Now simply drag files into this folder. By default they will be copied to the Compressed Folder. Each time you drag files to this folder, wait a few seconds before dragging more files to it. Depending on the speed of your computer and network, it can take a few seconds to compress the files.

WinZip

WinZip is a popular tool for working with zip files. It can be downloaded from http://www.winzip.com/

In the Start menu, locate and select WinZip.

- Select New button.

This will select all files between the first file selected and the last file selected.
