I want to change the php setting but from ".php" page not php.ini. The settings I want to change is
upload_max_filesize, post_max_size and memory_limit

A:
If your server administrator hasn't prevented it, you can use ini_set() to change the memory limit:
ini_set("memory_limit","16000000"); // abbreviations like "16M" work only
// in php.ini, always use full numbers here
The two other options are needed before the PHP script is loaded, there is no way to change those in php.ini.

@Starx sorry, there is probably no way to do this if you don't have access to `php.ini`. You'll have to talk to your provider or server administrator and ask them to increase the limit for you.

You can try it with a .htaccess file, if you have AllowOverride Options:
Place a file named .htaccess to your webroot:
php_value upload_max_filesize 10000
php_value post_max_size 10000
php_value memory_limit 10000

Hah! Forgot this possibility. Not always available either in shared hosting, but worth a try. +1

You can place it in any folder below the webroot. Put it next to your index.php file and it should work.
