MadTechie Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 you don't use a size in the filesize() function, it returns a size, which is in bytes so 512000 = 500k Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/159200-solved-filesize/#findComment-839586 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK87 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 why not just convert from bytes to kilobytes? if(round(filesize($file)/1024) < 750){ //code } Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/159200-solved-filesize/#findComment-839663 Share on other sites More sharing options...
