Finding the size of a file prior to download

["Ian Patterson" <ian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We use httpapi to download files (binary and SSL).
It would be useful to know what the file size is prior to downloading it.

We use GET with and without chunking but can't see a method to establish the
download file size before the download.
Especially with chunked downloads where the content length is the chunk.

Any ideas anyone?
