Calculating free space available

[Nutter]

Is there a way to tell how much space is remaining available for files? I'm working on a script that takes uploaded images and adds them to a database, but I'd like to check and make sure there's room for it first.

I think there's probably going to be some type of issue with quotas, because that's how I found the problem. A user had uploaded a test version and got an error that a folder could not be created because of insufficient space remaining.

And I know I could probably exec() out to df or something similar, but I would like it to work on Windows servers as well, so I'd prefer to keep it all in PHP code if possible.

disk_free_space [us2.php.net] may be something you want, too. :)

Thanks eelix, that looks like it is just what I'm looking for. It's amazing that no matter how many times I go through the function list at PHP.net to find something new I always seem to miss the one I'm looking for :)
