How I get filesize in a HTTP server before download it? Please Help

If you are using the Twebbrowser and other components supplied with delphi, you have to download the web page before you have access to the objects in the web page and their sizes. You can get size of files and such from the object list. I cannot remember the details because it was a project I did about a year ago. Anyway look at the Twebbrowser and the .pas files (e.g ShowTBl.pas i think) for the functions available.

There are some components which are freeware and can download a web page for analysis. Some jest reads the HTML and you will have to parse it yorself.

try
