I think we're off the point.
My script is simply interrogating the value of the
$_FILES[userfile][size] array element. It's coming up as ZERO if it
exceeds the MAX_FILE_SIZE. That seems odd to me. But maybe that's
the way it's SUPPOSED to work. That's why I started this thread out
with "What am I missing?".
Said another way:
It seems that the server had to know the size of the file in order
to know it exceeded MAX_FILE_SIZE. So how can my script find out the
size?
