FileSize from DB

[HBen]

Hello guys , i hope everyone is doing great !

So i was trying to get a file size from the file i uploaded to the BD , i succeded to get it

using

$filesize=$_FILES['uploadMedia']['size'];

but the problem was that i got the size in form of bits

348160 bits instead of 340 KB

is there any way to convert the bits to kb and Mb ??

i tried this function filesize($filename) but no luck

Thank you Guys

A kilobyte is 1024 bytes, a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes.

A kilobyte is 1024 bytes, a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes.

 

lol i made a mistake in "348160 bytes instead of 340 KB" , so any idea how can i get the size in kb !

Have you ever done conversions between units before?

 

Knowing how many bytes you have you can convert it to kilobytes or megabytes or gigabytes with a simple mathematical operation.
