Hey guys. I have a prewritten script for uploading images to my server. It already checks filesize which i need. But i also need to check the image width and height to make sure it does not go over a certain size. I am not sure how to accomplish this as i am not very good with CGI. Would any of you mind helping me to accomplish this? Here is the script i have.

Hey guys. I have a prewritten script for uploading images to my server. It already checks filesize which i need. But i also need to check the image width and height to make sure it does not go over a certain size. I am not sure how to accomplish this as i am not very good with CGI. Would any of you mind helping me to accomplish this? Here is the script i have.

You could probably use ImageMagick to accomplish this. There's actually a ImageMagick CPAN module available out there.
