I do not believe this can be done javascript alone.
I know of four ways to determine the size of the image:
1. Using a Flash-based uploader, such as SWFUpload.
2. On the server are the post has been received and the stream deserialized.
3. Using an ActiveX component in javascript (IE only - yuck)
new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
4. Using a Java servelet (though I don't know much about how this would
work).

Does swfupload work on all platforms/browsers? Last time I tried a
flash-based
uploader it crashed FF (linux) every time.
