File Size

[Kuricheti]

Hi, I am using File Upload control to upload files. Is there any way to find the size of the file before saving it. Because I want to tell to the end user that 'ur File size exceeded the max limit'. Thanks Hari

Hi patel I run the above code. I'm getting javascript error at 'var oas = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");' saying that 'Microsoft JScript runtime error: Automation server can't create object' What I have to do? Thanks Hari -- modified at 2:42 Monday 5th November, 2007
