hello.

i am using jsp and i have a page that allows users to download excel/pdf/csv formatted files..problem is i need to display the file size of the file to be downloaded.(eg download (100KB) )..

can anyone help me with this? or at least lead me to existings threads about this one...

thanks a lot..:blush:

I have moved your question to the XML, HTML, Javascript, Web and CGI forum.

try this:

Code:

---

Set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fileObject = fso.GetFile(Server.MapPath("\fso\") & "\myfile.txt")

Response.Write fileObject.Size & " bytes"

---

PS: this probably should have been submitted in the Java or the XML, HTML, Javascript, Web and CGI section
