 Hi,

 Already have asked 
 herehttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/12668310/check-upload-file-size-before-actual-file-data-uploading,
 but no reply.

 I will duplicate my question here:

 In my web2py controller I'm accessing file data like:

 vfile = request.post_vars.video.file

 But how can I check Content-Length *before* actual file data will be
 uploaded? It is not a good idea for me to check file size after file
 already uploaded.

 NOTE: I'm not using FORM() helper and database but just raw regular file
 upload. Is there any way to hook into web2py internals to do what I need?


I suspect you will have to use javascript to do this.  I have just search
for 'javascript file size before upload'  and saw answers that should not
be too difficult to use in your case.

Re: [web2py] Check upload file size before actual file data uploading

[Massimo Di Pierro]

You can try this:

In the upload form add input type='hidden' name='X-Progress-ID' 
value='test'/


def upload_page():
 ...
 length_bytes = cache.ram('X-Progress-ID:test:length',None,0)
 uploaded_bytes = cache.ram('X-Progress-ID:test:uploaded',None,0)
 ...

they are updated during the upload. Hope this helps.
