No, No, No and I did answer this last time it was posted.
The way it works is that it gets attached to the form being submit as binary
data, there might be a way to check this in Javascript (not a JS guru so not
sure, would mean to many security issues I believe if this was allowed)....
Perl is like CF Server Side, it can only take control once the file has been
received. Javascript well I don't know, and haven't seen any topics to date
that would say you can, maybe someone else can so for sure.

Subject: Yet another filesize question
Hi All,
I know there has been a lot of talk about this subject lately, but none of
the threads directly answered my question. I know that I can determine a
file's size AFTER it has been uploaded, but I would like to prevent someone
from uploading a 100MB file, and then have to delete it after it has bogged
down the server.
Once I have selected a file to upload with a FILE input, can I determine the
value of the path to the selected file in order to do a CFDIRECTORY on the
path and determine the size, thus preventing the upload all together? Maybe
with Perl or JavaScript?
Thanks in advance,
James
