Hi Guys,
Thanks for the suggestions. I was after something specifically that
stopped the user even trying to upload something so they don't waste
time sitting around waiting for something to upload only have it to
fail half way through.
I will check out Joshua's implementation.

Hi!
The KISS solution: configure the maximum size of a request in
Apache itself, using the LimitRequestBody option in the
configuration.
You should find a way to handle nicely the error pages the user
will see when submitting a file too large. This of course depends
on your setup, if you are doing the upload using some Ajax
trickery or not, etc.
If you don't want to use the Apache thing, you should be able to do
a streaming upload (stream it to disk) and cut off the copying
after a certain point. It should be straightforward to return an
error message.

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on what to use
to limit the size of files uses upload.
Im currently looking at http://swfupload.org/. has anyone had any
experience with it, in particular getting it to play nice with a
WOApp ?
Or is there something better out there ?
