)

number of bytes available on the corresponding filesystem or disk
partition.
Parameters
directory
A directory of the filesystem or disk partition.
Note:
Given a file name instead of a directory, the behaviour of the
function is unspecified and may differ between operating systems and
PHP versions.

Notes

remote files as the file to
be examined must be accessible via the server's filesystem.
