Check file size of photos using Javascript

[tgundeck]

Does anyone know how I can check the file size of photos or any file
type in JavaScript? I'm allowing users to store photos in my web page
using the input type = file tag, but need to limit the photo size to 1
meg. I would like to check the file size in JavaScript on the page,
instead of on the server. Anyone know how I can check the file size in
JavaScript?

As this has to be done serverside better ask an ASP NG.

Yes ASP can do javascript serverside.

Here is a tool I built for "webtv" don't know if it will work for PCs,
it will give you file size of images and webpages. It's written in perl,
not javascript.
If your interested let me know and I'll give you the txt file for
script. Papajo
