Uploading files from URL and other functions - HELP!

[xianaier]

I want to get a file from a url and copy it to a directory on my server. Not only that but i want to be able to get the file size of the actual file before it is really copied to my server.

I know about the Copy() function but how would i get a the file size or type before the script actually puts it on my server? This would be useful if i did not want people to upload .html files and such.

Thanks in advance!

I think, you should have to look at following two urls:

PHP: file - Manual

PHP: filesize - Manual

To OP

Can you provide a script example which you are currently using?
