I have just changed to PHP 5 as I wanted to extend the functionality of one
of my projects to further use its OO. But I just discovered that one of the
extensions available under PHP 4+ isnt included in the same way,

The zip_open + other functions are not available under the configure
options for PHP 5? I know zip is under the PECL and its compilable as an
extension, but I cant find any documentation on how to include this into
PHP 5? if its possible at all?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nick

Try this on the command line:

pear install zip

This downloads, compiles and installs the module. Then you need to add
this line to your php.ini and restart apache:

extension = zip.so

If you are using windows then I can't help you, don't know how it works
there.
