def isSmallFile(self, field_data, all_data):
if len(field_data["content"] > 10000: # 10,000 bytes
raise validators.ValidationError, "Please enter a smaller file."
The trick here is to operate on field_data['content'] instead of
field_data. File-upload fields are a special-case; they come across as
a dictionary of {'filename', 'content-type', 'content'}.
