Hi,

Does the FP file upload component limit upload file size?

Thanks,

Yes, 1 MB max.

Okay--that's what I thought I read somewhere here, but on my test server
(localhost) I can upload files much larger than that. Should I be seeing an
error message if I try to upload a file that's too large?

TIA,
Kristen Wagner

Yes, I would think you would see an error or warning message, however best to try it directly on the
hosting server. However keep in mind that you host must allow you to use this component, and may
have to set permissions on the folder you choose for allowing uploads.

I have the luxury of having control over the host's settings as well as my
own, so that's not an issue, but thanks. It looks like I will need to look
at other asp upload options.

Thanks,

You will have more control using ASP upload components, such as ASPUpload.com, especially if you are
building application where user may need to replace prior uploaded content, which can not be handle
via the FP Upload component.

Thanks for the suggestion, Thomas. That's where I was headed.
