"This file is too big." Message does not go away after selecting a second image which does fit the maximum size.

[dragonflyeye]

WordPress MU 2.9.1.
Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Start a new post
2. Click "Add Image" button
3. Select an image which is too big. Now you've got the error message on your screen, "This file is too big. The maximum upload size for your server is X."
4. Select a new image which does fit the maximum size for your setup.
5. The new image uploads fine, but the message still appears in the same location, making it look that this file is also too large.

The position:relative didn't fix that for me in FF 3.0. Try the patch I attached and see if it's good across browsers.

Resetting version, Please leave that at the originally reported (or earliest known edition the bug exists in) for bug tracking purposes.

Also note, This isnt a MU/Multisite specific bug, Any error will trip this, such as uploading a file which falls outside of the "security guidelines", ie. a .php file.

I'm not sure CSS is the right way to go here, Ideally, upon error, the media row should stay (as it is in the crunching stage) and the error be added to the div.

Either that, or all upload file errors be cleared upon uploading a 2nd file, as currently, they just build up at the top of the table.
