Unpacking a zip'ed file with a php script

[HerComServ]

Do we have ZZIPlib or something like that installed to automatically unzip files with a php script?
Thanks for your help!

I'm no PHP guru but couldn't you use exec ?

unzip is on all unix machines, if this is for windows then I don't think there is any unzip utils.

I was just about to ask the same question but for ASP...from the component lists I've seen it doesn't look like there's a way to unzip through ASP.....might I be wrong? (Hopefully?)

You might want to try an ASP script to zip/unzip files. There are a few listed on hotscripts:

Yeah, I already looked there....everything listed seems to be components, which means vortech would need to install them.

Zip functions are built into PHP

http://www.php.net/zip

On windows you need to grab the php.ini and uncomment the php_zip.dll

where do we get a copy of the sample php.ini file (is there one in the support system?)

Yeah go to vortechsupport.com in the downloads section.
