note 37482 added to ref.zlib

I found the absolute easiest way to read a gzip file is as follows: echo file_get_contents("compress.zlib:///myphp/test.txt.gz"); To create a gzip file: file_put_contents("compress.zlib:///myphp/test.txt.gz","Put this in the file\r\n"); Things to note about this: -The best prefix to use is "compress.zlib", not "zlib" -If you wish to specify a path starting in the root path, you actually end up with three slashes. The above path corresponds to "/myphp/test.txt" on unix, and "c:\myphp\test.txt" on Windows (if C: is the current drive). I tested it just on Windows. -Compression and decompression both use the same prefix of "compress.zlib://" (plus one more slash to get a root dir). -I'm using 5.0, so I'm not 100% sure which behaviour started in which version. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.zlib.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+37482 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+37482&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+37482&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
