Well, you cannot check the file size of the document with CF prior to uploading it,
but there may be some java applets out there that can do this. The problem is that
until the file gets to the server, the server has no idea how large it is.
Once it's uploaded though, you can use the CFFILE variable "FileSize" to determine
it's size and then use some conditional logic to do whatever.
Check the docs:
