How to upload a big size file in php?

The max file size set in php.ini file is 2 mb.

I want to write code such that it will allow to upload a big sized file with out changing the setting in php.ini file.

2 options

1. You can make a php.ini locally (most sites support it), you can upload it to your sites root folder. This is not same as editing the server's php.ini, for which you will not have access mostly - unless it is a dedicated server.

2. Editing .htaccess for the same (some sites does not allow php.ini but .htaccess)

It will work, no problem with this.
But I need a method where I can upload files without any limit and not doing any php.ini or .htaccess file modification.
I can use php or perl.
