You'd have to check the file on server side too, as javascript alone cant guarantee that the file wont be uploaded anyway. To check on the serverside the whole file has to be uploaded first before you can check its size. Javascript should only be used for userfriendliness. For instance, if the files are big they will take a while to upload and then it might be a good idea to try and check it with javascript beforehand. If the files are small, you might as well do it all on the server side, as the user wont notice much difference anyway. All of that being said, I belive your web site would have to be in the browsers "trusted zone" before you'd have access to read files with javascript anyway, so its probably not an option. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
