Your host should help you with this, if they don't, I'd suggest moving
to a competent web host. (Webcity.com.au springs to mind.)
Anyway, the php.ini file should be in *every* directory where you are
executing the script from. So if you're executing
http://www.domain.com/script.php, it would need to be in the www
directory. If it is at http://www.domain.com/dir/script.php, it would
need to be in www/dir/
Hope that clears things up for you.
