in reply to Restricting the size of Input file

if someone is uploading a file via a form you can check:
$ENV{CONTENT_LENGTH}

[download]
I think there is also the -s test operator if you are checking the file size of a file on the file system.

Update:
As rinceWind said you can limit upload size such as:
$CGI::POST_MAX = 1_048_576; # 1 MB

[download]
Hope that helps
