obtaining size of rewritten image file

[xagutxu]

Hi:

 

I have found that something strange happens in my php script. I wish someone could explain me why.

 

I receive an image via POST, and it is saved as a temporary file in the server:

 

$tmpName  = $_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'];

 

The filesize I obtain doing: $fileSize = $_FILES['uploadedfile']['size']; is 79733, the same as if I did: filesize($tmpName).

 

Ok. Now, I resize the image, and save it in the same $tmpName, and everything is ok, but when I try to obtain the size, I get the first size, that is: 79733.

 

Anybody has an explanation?

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Xagutxu

You may need to save the file to some other location other than the temp location and then calculate the file size???  For security reasons you probably want this location to be outside the root of your server.

PHP caches that kind of file and directory information. You can clear the cache with clearstatcache.

It works!

 

Thank you, requinix!
