Answer 1

Is your post_max_size limit less than 2MB? (http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.post-max-size) If so the file may have been discarded before your code is invoked.

Update:

If you take out your function call in the else block, and just drop in an exit('too big'); are you able to see errors then? If so there may be an issue with how you're pasing the call off.
