Perhaps via some frame trickery. You could submit to one frame, then grab
the size from the headers and tell the form that is posting the file to
relocate itself via javascript, which would effectively stop the transfer.

This may be a better way to do it though, it of course doesn't work in
NS4...

If you think you can use it I have an ultra cool little ActiveX upload
control that lets you do everything from on the client side.
