'kB' => 1024, // pow( 1024, 1)
'B ' => 1, // pow( 1024, 0)
);
foreach ( $quant as $unit => $mag )
if ( doubleval($bytes) >= $mag )

return false;
}
?>

//$value = dumpr($key, $value);
$output .= "";
$output .= "$key ";
$output .= "$value ";
$output .= " ";
}
} else {
$output .= "";
$output .= "$data ";
$output .= " ";
}
