    Dear all.
    I have been googling to find out which is the best way to use PHP to
    unzip a zip file I have found the following:
    zziplib
    and
    pclzip
    but still can't really decide without doing alot of tests etc
    Can anyone give advice as to which one to use. and which one not to and why?
    TIA.
    regards

    I've used the PECL zip extension. I believe it was originally based on
    zzip, but is now based on another zip library.

    I won't make any claims about it being better or worse than the other
    two you mention ('cause I really don't know), but I can tell it works
    reliably. :-)

    I would go with this one:
    http://php.net/zip
    because it's built-in, faster, easier, and the PHP Dev Team will
    (probably) keep maintaining it.
