Note Submitter: Daijoubu ---- It should be URL and not URI ;) Here's my function for retrieving remote filesize without for peoples without CURL (no auth/302 Found support) Return the int filesize or false on failure <?php function filesize_remote($url, $timeout=2) { $url = parse_url($url); if ($fp = @fsockopen($url['host'], ($url['port'] ? $url['port'] : 80), $errno, $errstr, $timeout)) { fwrite($fp, 'HEAD '.$url['path'].$url['query']." HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: ".$url['host']."\r\n\r\n"); stream_set_timeout($fp, $timeout); while (!feof($fp)) { $size = fgets($fp, 4096); if (stristr($size, 'Content-Length') !== false) // PHP5: stripos { $size = trim(substr($size, 16)); break; } } fclose ($fp); } return is_numeric($size) ? intval($size) : false; } ?>
