Code:

  
function formatbytes($file, $type)   
{   
    switch($type){   
        case "KB":   
            $filesize = filesize($file) * .0009765625; // bytes to KB   
        break;   
        case "MB":   
            $filesize = (filesize($file) * .0009765625) * .0009765625; // bytes to MB   
        break;   
        case "GB":   
            $filesize = ((filesize($file) * .0009765625) * .0009765625) * .0009765625; // bytes to GB   
        break;   
    }   
    if($filesize <= 0){   
        return $filesize = 'unknown file size';}   
    else{return round($filesize, 2).' '.$type;}   
}

Code:

// USAGE   
echo formatbytes("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/images/large_picture.jpg", "MB");   
// would display the file size in MB

}

Code:

// USAGE   
echo formatbytes("$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]/images/large_picture.jpg", "MB");   
// would display the file size in MB

On the reutrn you could also do
return(number_format($filesize, 2, '.', ',').' '.$type)

This would show something like 1,321.26 KB etc.

It would have been hilarious if you saw what he posted before the edit.

I did a double-take and was like "wait, that's a built-in function now?!" hehe.

But props for finding it and posting it, Juicy.
