Note Submitter: n dot dose @ hicom dot de ---- MAX_FILE_SIZE: check the error of the upload to see if MAX_FILE_SIZE was exceeded, for example: $_FILES['userfile']['error'] has a value of 2 (UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE) when the file size exceeds MAX_FILE_SIZE. This error gets set automatically by PHP. Your script does not need to compare the sizes. The user *will* have to wait for the entire payload to be transferred to your server, however. This is a PHP-only feature. It has nothing to do with the client's browser. The RFC hints at a MAXLENGTH property for the <input type="file">, but this is not supported by browsers (I tested on IE 6 and Netscape 7 on Windows 2000)
