QUESTION FROM NEWBIE>>>
From the PHP manual it says that in order to open ZIP files you need to install the ZZIPlib library by Guido Draheim.
1. I went to that link and it is unclear which file I need to download.
2. I am running from a hosted web server where I do not have root access to install or make changes to PHP.
Is this ZZIPlib like a "class" or and Include file that I can use? Or does it require install access??
Thanks,

READING ZIP FILES
ol4pro,
Yes,
That is the same file I am talking about. However, this class only seems to allow CREATING a zip file, not READING an existing zip file.
Also, What does "--with-zip" mean?
Is this a setting in the php.ini file?
If so, Since I run on a hosted website, I do not have access to change this setting, do I?

"--with-zip" is one of config you can use to complie php on unix/linux systems, on windows, its just matter of uncommenting a line in php.ini and making sure the DLL is there lol...ah the simple life
.
your hosted on someone else's server, you wont be able to recomplie php.
you could ask the host nicely though.
