Getting the correct value?

[crzyman]

I have this code:

$max=15728640.00;

$test = $filesize+$dirsize;

 

if ($test > $max) {

$errormsg = "Total file size is greater than the total limit (".getfilesize($max).").";

return;

}

 

 

$filesize is the size of a file about to be uploaded. $dirsize is the size of the directory in which the file is to be uploaded into. $test is the file to be uploaded plus the directory size. Now I am trying to set a limit on the size of the folder in which visitors to my site can upload into. I want that size limit to be 15 MiB.

I have tried to do $max = 15 * pow(1024,2); , but that doesn't work (still not sure why?).

I try to use $max=15728640 (1.53 MiB right?), but that will not work.

Now I tried to use $max=1572864; Then I get: Total file size is greater than the total limit (1.5 MiB).

So why when I use $max=15728640 does it allow the file to be upload? I have 40 MiB in the upload folder. Can anyone sort this out for me? I am very confused.

Posted this in the wrong forum. Sorry.

Not sure, but give this a shot.

 

$max='15728640.00';

 

Before, the decimal was not acting as a decimal, but instead as 1572864000

 

Give that a shot and let us know
