phrozenflame Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I am currently doing a download page on my site. In the admin control area when a new file is submitted the script automatically should obtain the size of the file. now before we say use filesize() it wont work .. this is because the file may or maynot be on the same server as the php script. filesize needs a realpath ( c:\dir\file.zip ) as it doesn't work with a url ( [a href=\"http://www.site.com/file.zip\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.site.com/file.zip[/a] ).How else can i obtain the file size?

fert Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Then the only easy way to get the size of a remote file (that i know of) is to enable it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
