This script will allow you to display the file size of attached files uploaded to a node. It will determine and display the appropriate size of the file in bytes, kilobytes, and megabytes.
<?php
$item = $node->filesize[0]; // change this to the correct field name
if($item['filesize'] < 1024) {
print ($item['filesize']);
print (" bytes");
}
elseif ($item['filesize'] < 1048576) {
$filesize = $item['filesize'];
$filesize = $filesize / 1024;
$filesize = round($filesize, 2);
print ($filesize);
print (" kB");
}
else {
$filesize = $item['filesize'];
$filesize = $filesize / 1048576;
$filesize = round($filesize, 2);
print ($filesize);
print (" MB");
}
?>Tested in Drupal 5 with the Contemplate module. Originally from http://drupal.org/node/254020#comment-915919
Drupal 5 & Drupal 6 Tip
There is a dedicated function for similar results at least in Drupal 5 and 6:
<?php
print format_size($file->filesize);
?>

Which part should be changed
Which part should be changed in the following sentence?
"$item = $node->filesize[0]; // change this to the correct field name"I have just recently started using Drupal and am still a total novice, but I've got a file field in a view and would like another field to display the filesize of the file field.
Thanks,
Jethro
