requestfilesize()?

[KuJi]

Something similar to requesturl but would return the value of a size (like an mp3 file or something?)

Do you mean the filesize of a file from the gserver, or from a specified URL?

If you mean from a specified URL, I think either requestURL or requestHTTP will return the filesize header from the HTTP server where possible.

[KuJi]

yeah, I mean directly from an mp3 file off a website.

When doing obj = requesturl(url) you can get the total file size by reading obj.contentlength on clientside once the header is loaded, although that will try to download the whole file

Well, I am making a "iPod" (diff name called - gPod :P)

So I want to make it so they can only have a certain amount of space total, running a for loop to check all there songs size might cause major lag to the server using requesturl :o. I'll probally end up doing a number of songs I guess.
