file size of what?

There are no predefined functions which can tell you the file-size of any page currently loaded...

does that answer your question?

hmm cj,
Javascript can be server side too.

But if you want to know the filesize of files on the client side.
You can try this :

bytesize of the document that the script is running from :
document.filesize

and for images :

myImage = new Image();
myImage.src = 'file:///D|/test.gif';
myimage.filesize //will return the image in bytes
But for a detaild file info of your files.. you could run a webserver and use FileSystemObject.

Or you could do like CJ_S said
