These are some of the directive you can use to have your website work a bit better in terms of uploading files and showing really long pages like modules page and blocks page in the admin section of drupal.
Create a php.ini file in your site's root folder and copy and paste this code into it.
register_globals = Off memory_limit = 96M post_max_size = 100M upload_max_filesize = 100M max_execution_time = 1000 max_input_time = 1000

This is an example on how you can create a custom search box for your drupal site. The code below renders a text box and a button. When you perform a search, drupal will only look for the keyword inside the node types specified below (page, recipe, product, blog_article). You can just copy and paste this code into a block.
use_pager) {
$output .= theme('pager', '', $view->pager_limit, $view->use_pager - 1);
}
$output .= theme_views_view($view, $type, $nodes, $level = NULL, $args = NULL);
return $output;
}
?>
Tested in drupal 4.x and 5.x
