Is there anyway to check the size of a file before it starts uploading

For instance, if the file is huge, and takes ages to upload, and is then
rejected by the server, the user will be somewhat annoyed!

PHP is server-side and cannot check anything client-side. You cold use
something client-side, like JavaScript, to check the file size and then
deliver a warning if the file is too large.

please, how do you do that with javascript - given the sandbox that javascript
runs in which doesn't allow access to the file system (IE security bugs and v.
special browser settings not with standing)?
