couldn't you set a query that takes the kb amount from the database and divides it by 1024?

[jesushax]

how do i dvidie my record by 1024 i tried

 

$FileSize = $rsfiles["FileSize"]/1024

 

thats no good

[jesushax]

wait that does work, but is shows 0 as the result

how can i make it displat decimal places the result is 0 but its something like 0.1 how do i make it do this?

 

cheers

First of all $_FILES['file']['size] counts in bytes, not kb, so you'll have to divide with 1024 to get it in kb and then again to get it in mb. And to only return 1 decimal integer it can be done by using explode() and substr()

$filesize = ($_FILES['file']['size'] / 1024) / 1024;
$exp_file = explode(".", $filesize);
$output = $exp_file[0].".".substr($exp_file[1],0,1);

 

Try that.

[jesushax]

$FileSize = ($rsfiles["FileSize"] / 1024) / 1024;
$exp_file = explode(".", $FileSize);
$output = $exp_file[0].".".substr($exp_file[1],0,1);

 

the above give me

 

0.

[jesushax]

its cos my fiel size is

 

11318

 

which /1024 /1024 is

 

0.010....

 

how do i make it to 3 decimal places

 

or how do i display it in kb instead?

 

cheers

$filesize = $_FILES['file']['size'] / 1024;
$exp_file = explode(".", $filesize);
$output = $exp_file[0].".".substr($exp_file[1],0,3);

 

The code above will now show the bytes in kb with 3 decimal integers.

Example: 1,234 kb.

 

Hope it works

 

EDIT!

Remember to change ['file'] with the name of your <input="file">
