HTTP/1.1\r\n"); fputs($fp, "HOST: dummy\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n"); $headers = ""; while (!feof($fp)) { $headers .= fgets ($fp, 128); } } fclose ($fp); $return = false; $arr_headers = explode("\n", $headers); foreach($arr_headers as $header) { $s = "Content-Length: "; if(substr(strtolower ($header), 0, strlen($s)) == strtolower($s)) { $return = substr($header, strlen($s)); break; } } return $return; } print ("Google logo is " . remote_file_size ("http://www.google.it/intl/it_it/images/logo.gif") .
