The form post must complete before any ColdFusion runs.  By that time,
it is too late because the file is already uploaded.

You need something on the client.  Perhaps some flash could determine
that...

Subject: Name of uploaded file before cffile

Is it possible to get the name of the client's file before doing cffile?

I am testing for file size by doing a cfdirectory and filtering on the
neoXXXXX.tmp file name provided in the form field. If the file size is
too large, I would like to tell the user which file (this is a
multiple upload form) was denied.

I know I could upload the file to a temporary location and then move
it, but that is more than I want and defeats the purpose in a way.

I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but just wanted to double-check.

Thanks,
