Send ZIP'ed data to script

[jacrewq]

Hi Everyone,

What do you think would be a good way to send a a file or just zipped data to a php script? In terms of HTTP headers how could that work?

I am trying to send ZIP data for my php script to unzip and process. I would like to minimize overhead from encoding. I would like to do it without variables in my post like data=xxxxxx... That would force me to encode the data.

I realize that there is file_get_contents("php://input") but what headers does that one require?

Let me know if you can help.

Thanks,
Alex

do you want a file sent to a script or a script to get a file? You ask about the former but mention file_get_contents which does the latter.

perhaps you can call the script with a file name? I i'm not sure what your actully trying to achieve.

Have a file upload form, process the upload with PHP and decode the uploaded file with a ZIP class.
