File’s size and type Upload

@PittimannMay 11.2004 — #Hi!

I hope you know, that this is IE only! Apart from that you will need a server side check for file type and size for security reasons.

 <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
 <!--
 function formCheck(){
 var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
 fileObj = fso.GetFile(document.myForm.whichFile.value);
 nameOfFile = fileObj.Name;
 typeOfFile = fileObj.Type;
 ext=nameOfFile.split('.');
 ext1=ext[(ext.length-1)];
 sizeOfFile = fileObj.Size;
 var sizeCheck=sizeOfFile;
 sizeOfFile = sizeOfFile/1024;
 sign = (sizeOfFile == (sizeOfFile = Math.abs(sizeOfFile)));
 sizeOfFile = Math.floor(sizeOfFile*100+0.50000000001);
 decimals = sizeOfFile%100;
 sizeOfFile = Math.floor(sizeOfFile/100).toString();
 if(decimals<10)
 decimals = "0" + decimals;
 for (var i = 0; i < Math.floor((sizeOfFile.length-(1+i))/3); i++)
 sizeOfFile = sizeOfFile.substring(0,sizeOfFile.length-(4*i+3))+','+
 sizeOfFile.substring(sizeOfFile.length-(4*i+3));
 sizeOfFile= (((sign)?'':'-') + sizeOfFile + '.' + decimals) + ' kB';
 if (sizeCheck<=75000&&(ext1=='gif'||ext1=='jpg'||ext1=='jpeg')){
 alert('The file "'+nameOfFile+'" will be uploaded:nSize: '+sizeOfFile+'nType: '+typeOfFile);
 return true;
 }
 if (sizeCheck>75000){
 alert('The file "'+nameOfFile+'" is bigger than the allowed maximum of 75000 bytes ('+sizeOfFile+')');
 return false;
 }
 else if (ext1!='gif'&&ext1!='jpg'&&ext1!='jpeg'){
 alert('Allowed extensions are ".gif", ".jpg" and ".jpeg"!');
 return false;
 }
 }
