I know it is a often asked question, but after googling for about 2hours
and
trying out some wired examples I am still not any closer to a solution.
So I was
hoping to find expert advice here.
I want to save the user the hastle of uploading a 2MB file and waiting
for a
long time for an error message that the file is to big.
Is there any usefull workaround in warning the user that he is about to
upload a
2MB file and only smaller files are supported? I tried around with
megaupload:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/megaupload
to get a progress bar and to get the file size prior to upload, but that
somehow
does not work the way I want it to.
Is there an easier solution without perl,just with PHP or/and JS?
