Tomorrow Posted January 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 May happen if the server does not reveal the size of the file. Seems like very rare occurance.So nothing we can do?.Maybe i should contact website owner so he could fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 The same thing happens with the WordPress.org download (http://wordpress.org/latest.zip). Since it doesn't expose the file size in the headers, Ketarin just has to wait until it's fully downloaded to know how big it is. While probably "rare", it's going to become more and more common if lazy developers continue to push the most recent file from a release system thru these "latest" type scripts, instead of actually parsing and sharing the meta data. You can write to the site owner, but chances are they don't care and don't consider it a problem. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
