[Javascript] Resizing images client-side

[Troy III Ajnej]

Hi Paul
 
Hahahahaa,
If I wasn't drunked last night and didn'tmcompletely missunderstood 
the problem, I believe it is very easy to get it done via javascript.
 
As I remember (?)Tedd asked about how to disable or prevent the 
client from uploading large pictures, suppose, not bigger than 500k.
 
All it takes is just a little bit of imagination or creativity. I will describe
the routine not the code itself since you all know how writte one.
 
You will need a "bypass function" for "submit".
1. get the picture file to load on the page.
2. use the onload event of the image object to check for image filesize. 
3. compare, the actuall f-size with your max limit size, and let the "con-
ditional" decide what statement to execute.
4 That is: alert box that tells the user the file exceeds the maximum 
alowed or submit it right away.
 
And it will all take only a second for the function to complete.
 
If I wasn't clear, please dont hesitate to ask. I might find some time to
actually write the code and post it here.
:)
Regards
