Size of a remote URL

[Diez B. Roggisch]

First of all: post working code, not some snipplet that clearly isn't
capable of running due to syntactic and semantic errors.

This is what I made of your code:

from urllib2 import *
linklisttype = ["http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Temp/Ariadne-RAE.doc"] *
4

file_sizes = []
for y in linklisttype:
    temp = urlopen(y)
    print temp
    temp2 = temp.info()
    print temp2
    temp3 = temp2.getheader("Content-Length")
    print temp3
    file_sizes.append(temp3)

print file_sizes

This is the result:

632832

0x401f35dc>>

<snip>

['632832', '632832', '632832', '632832']

Works perfect.
