max attachment filesize info in upload form

[anonymous]

would be nice to see a hint in the attachment upload form, where you can see the max filesize for attachments.. this info is also usefull for the users

Patch with information on max size for uploads.

[osimons]

Good idea. Attached a patch that instead of 'File:' renders 'File (max. 256 kb):' (or whatever the current max is).

Feedback? Commit?

[osimons]

Forgot that it can be set to '0' (zero) for unlimited. No point in displaying it then.

+1, although the pretty_size() function could be revisited a little bit to remove useless data - maybe at a later time.
Example:

File (256.0 kB):

256 kB would look more natural.

Another version, with the message in the template

I attached an updated version of the patch, with the pretty_size() variation and also putting the message directly in the template, which I think should be preferred whenever possible.

Ok for 0.11.

Last patch from cboos committed as [6286]. Only changed the text a little to make it less obtrusive - now just says 'size limit'.
