• Buddhist FileUpload - How do I trap maxfilesize problems

  The fileupload control works well for files < 4MB (maxrequestlength), but if the file is larger than this the program fails with: - the page cannot be displayed, or Server error in '/xxxxx' application Maximum request length exceeded How do I trap this so that I can return a better error message The failure occurs before the Page Load from any callback, so I can't see any way of trapping the error, and I haven't seen any event or property of the Fileupload control that I can set to say "Do this when Max Request Length is exceeded" I don't want to accept larger files, I'm happy to live with the limit. Regards, Robert Barnes the best place to ask would be over ...Show All

Or if you want something to take a certain time...then move quicker use 2 timers. Like this: When the 1st time ...Show All
