s:fileUpload and oversized files

[tonjefr]

I am uploading files with s:fileUpload, which works fine. However, if the filesize exceeds the max an exception is thrown. Is there a way to detect this at an earlier point? The ideal would be to simply have a small error message appear on the webpage next to the Browse-button to inform the other user to pick a smaller file (something like FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(uploadForm:someId, new FacesMessage(Too big file!) ) );

Thanks for any help!

Was a solution found for this?  I'm currently catching the exception in pages.xml, but the conversation is terminated and the redirect doest return the user to the configured view-id.  If you could post the resolution that would be great!
