[file uploads: $CGI::POST_MAX trapping not working with CAP - CGI.pm]
Mmm, I was messing with it and posted my previous message too fast, I
suppose, 'cause I have found a workaround now. Instead of using
CGI.pm (which doesn't provided needed results), use CGI::Simple.
I played with trapping the error in my instance script right before the
run mode. This worked, but I found that the script still did not
interrupt the entire file from being uploaded, it only output the error
page after the file had finished being POSTed. I dug into CGI.pm a bit
to see what was going on after asking a question on the "beginners-cgi"
list. As I understand it, the server will process the POST completely
before handing the data to the CGI script.
Still, this is an error that needs to be trapped, if for no other
reason, than to tell the user they can't post too much data.
Kindest Regards,
