I was reading about this here: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
It says:

But you should add MAX_FILE_SIZE anyway as it saves users the trouble to wait for a big file being transferred only to find out that it was too big afterwards.

So, I decided to add
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />
to my form.
It didn't seem to do anything. Is the browser supposed to use this to throw a browser-genrated error to me, or something?
