change max file uploads in php

When I check in phpinfo() in a browser, my max_file_uploads (images in my case) is set to 20, but I need to change that to a higher limit. Supposedly this is to be changed in the php.ini but I couldn't find anything that would relate to it.

Help please! Thanks a lot!!

edit: tried to add the line max_file_uploads = 100 since there was no such line in the php.ini, but it didn't do the trick. also the "100" is red, i don't know if that means something...

If you are using Apache web server, here is a solution that does not require editing php.ini:

Create a .htaccess file if one does not exist already and add the following line to it. 

php_value max_file_uploads 100

Where 100 is the maximum number of files allowed. You can change it to the desired integer value as per your requirement.

Thanks to RiggsFolly and Jeff Puckett II I could make it work as follows:

If the line "max_file_uploads" is already in the php.ini but the number is insufficient, change the number and restart the web- or local server. done.

If the line "max_file_uploads" doesn't exist yet, just add it, restart the web- or local server. done.
