Question :

How do I get the total size of a certain directory?

Answer :
You can use the folowing function as shown in alt.php by ryanflynnn at my-deja.com:


<?php

$totalsize
=0;

function 
show_dir($dir$pos=2){
    global 
$totalsize;
    if(
$pos == 2)
        echo 
"<hr><pre>";
    
$handle = @opendir($dir);
    while (
$file = @readdir ($handle)){
        if (
eregi("^\.{1,2}$",$file))
            continue;
        if(
is_dir($dir.$file)){
        echo 
"|- ".$pos."s <b>$file</b>\n";
        
show_dir("$dir.$file/"$pos+3);
    }else{
        
$size=filesize($dir.$file);
        echo 
"|- ".$pos."s $file ";
        echo(
"$size <br>");
            
$totalsize=$totalsize+$size;
        }
    }
    @
closedir($handle);

    if(
$pos == 2) echo "</pre><hr>";

    return(
$totalsize);
}

$totalsize show_dir("c:/winnt/system32/");
