Can you run some script before the uploading of a file starts in php?

Can you run some script before the uploading of a file starts in php? Example, I’m POSTing to upload.php, and in that file I want to check their $_SESSION first before I start wasting bandwidth on them and the file stats uploading to my server. I’m using php 5.2.11 on nginx.

<?php
  if ($_SESSION['admin'] == 'YES') {
    // do upload here
  } else {
    exit;
  }
?>

    No. The request doesn’t get to the PHP engine until after the file has been uploaded.
