 * This maybe a PHP issue I am not sure. I have a WP plugin that uploads file attachments.
   If I exceed the memory or file size would it still post the files? I am searching
   all over in my code to see why it won’t load more than 5 attachments. I have 
   debug turned on and I don’t get any errors. I assumed that if it exceeded the
   limit, it would not post any attachments and fail. It always posts no more than
   5 files.

 * Is this a plugin you developed? Or one you’re trying to use?

 * Its one that was developed by someone and I have edited it. I know the classes
   that upload the files. There are no reference to file upload size etc. No limit
   to amount of files. I was curious if a query to upload say 10 files but the memory
   was exceeded wouldn’t it fail completely? It always limits to 5 files.

 * I got it figured out. I hard coded the number of files and it worked. So then
   I changed this:
 *     ```
       for($i=0; $i<count($_FILES); $i++)
   
       to this:
   
       for($i=0; $i<=count($_FILES); $i++) 
       ```
