   ### Additional Settings that may need to be enabled for some servers 
   ### Uncomment the commands by removing the # sign in front of it.
   ### If you get an "Internal Server Error 500" after enabling any of the following      settings, restore the # as this means your host doesn't allow that.
  
   # 1. If your cart only allows you to add one item at a time, it is possible           register_globals is on. This may work to disable it:
    php_flag register_globals off
  
   # 2. If your cart has magic quotes enabled, This may work to disable it:
    php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
  
   # 3. Set max upload file size. Most hosts will limit this and not allow it to be      overridden but you can try
     php_value upload_max_filesize 999M
  
   # 4. set max post size. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or      are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
     php_value post_max_size 999M
  
   # 5. set max time script can take. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product      options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
     php_value max_execution_time 200
  
   # 6. set max time for input to be recieved. Uncomment this line if you have a lot of      product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields
