PHP extract
I am working on a CCMS and I have a section for installing new modules. Now, I want it so that the files are either .zip or .tar.gz. I don't need both standards, so I will choose one. What I want to learn, please, is how, once I've uploaded the files, how do I unzip them on the server using PHP. Any help will be much appreciated. I can't get it to work with the shell_exec() function, so I am desperate.

I have never tried this, but for .ZIP, see http://www.php.net/zip and for .gz see http://www.php.net/zlib

Nothing there seems to work.
Thanks for trying, though!
