Re: Multiple File Download

Miguel, That is very nice of you! I found the zip class on the Zend website: http://www.zend.com/codex.php?id=696&single=1 and here is an article pertaining to zip file creation: http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/creating-zip-files3.php When I try to open the php created zip file with Stuffit Expander, I get the following message: "Unknown zip header format encountered. This operation cannot continue." However, Zipit opens the archive fine. If I resave the archive from Zipit, then Stuffit will read it without error. So far I have compared the two files (the one created by php, and the one saved from Zipit). The basic compressed data matches, but there definitely is a difference in header structures. I have downloaded the zip file format specs, but am still pulling my hair out trying to figure out what all the different parts are. I am not accustomed to working with hex data, so that to is making it hard. I appreciate you taking the time to help! Thank you! Steven J.

Is it possible it's just a MIME type thing? Let me know how to find the class you're using and I'll try to play with it this afternoon. miguel On Tue, 7 May 2002, Steven Walker wrote:

You are right. I am testing this out now using a zip class I got through the Zend website. However, Stuffit Expander does not like the zip files created by php. I am able to open the zip archive through Zipit just fine, and Stuffit Expander opens the Zipit files ok. So now I am trying to figure out how to modify the php zip class to make a zip archive that Stuffit will read. Any thoughts? On Tuesday, May 7, 2002, at 11:39 AM, Miguel Cruz wrote:

Does anyone know a way to download multiple files with a php script? I have 26 software products that can be purchased individually and I want to make the download process easier. I have looked into dynamically creating zip files, but it is problematic for Mac users (which account for a large part of my user base).

Are you sure it's a problem for your Mac users? Stuffit Expander, which has come with all Macs for a while now and which is pretty much an essential tool for everyone, handles zip files just fine. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
