PHP zip_entry_open() Function
Example
Open a ZIP file archive, open directory entry for reading, and read from the open directory entry:
<?php
$zip = zip_open("test.zip");
if ($zip) {
while ($zip_entry = zip_read($zip)) {
echo "<p>Name: " . zip_entry_name($zip_entry) . "<br>";
// Open directory entry for reading
if (zip_entry_open($zip, $zip_entry)) {
echo "File Contents:<br>";
// Read open directory entry
$contents = zip_entry_read($zip_entry);
echo "$contents<br>";
zip_entry_close($zip_entry);
}
echo "</p>";
}
zip_close($zip);
}
?>
The output of the code depends on the contents of the ZIP archive:
Name: ziptest.txt
File Contents:
Hello World! This is a test.
Name: htmlziptest.html
File Contents:
Hello World!
This is a test for the zip functions in PHP.
