For security reasons, browsers severely restrict access to file system information. As such, it is not possible to directly read the size of the file stored on disk. However, there are some ways for getting the size of the *currently loaded* HTML content, by using document.head.innerHTML.length + document.body.innerHTML.length or document.documentElement.innerHTML.length Note: these values only approximate the actual file size. For example, using Chrome's built-in Developer Tools with a downloaded copy of http://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html yields the following: document.head.innerHTML.length + document.body.innerHTML.length = 1806387 document.documentElement.innerHTML.length = 1806430 However, the actual file size (as reported by Win10 file "Properties" dialog) = 1938885 perhaps this is close enough for your purposes? let me know how it goes... enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools.com: "Small Tools for Big Ideas!"
