Checking a file size before actually uploading.

Is there any way with the fileupload control to not have it upload the file
if it's to big? I want to set a 5MB limit but don't want to have the user
upload a 50MB only to be told once it's done that the file is to big.

TIA - Jeff.

Activex control or java applet can do it. i think face book uses
applet for uploading photos.
