I have a page that uses form submission to upload a file to a webserver (which I have no control over as it's my customers) and have a problem relating to files of a certain size (>200Kb) where the server has a limit.

As I am not (and will not be) able to alter the configuration of the webserver in any way, I was wondering what might be considered as the best way to work around this.

I thought perhaps a client side FileSystemObject to load the file in as a textstream and pass across chunks of data to the server where it can use a textstream to build the file back together in the same manner.

Any thoughts...?

Regards,

Sean Anderson

(Since the first post) I have used the FileSystemObject and successfully broken the selected file into chunks of 200Kb (size configurable) that are saved to the local drive (<original_name>_part[nnn]), but now cannot seem to work out how you can automatically transfer these file to the server.

I was expecting to have a standard HTML form for uploading and to populate the fields of the form using Javascript, but cannot seem to populate the <INPUT type='file'> field ... reading up suggests it is read-only (grrr!)

Any ideas...?
