creting zip of directory

[vivek151189]

I have used the class that you can see here

its working fine when the script and the directory to be zipped is at same place
but when i tried to zip the directory at another place for eg - admin/calculatedpayout

then when i extract the zip it first shows admin directory inside which is th calculatedpayout and then the content of it

but I want to get the zip of calculatedpayout

Is it possible to change the destination directory of the files in the ZIP? I don’t want my files to inherit the same directory structure as their original path.

Hi Vivek, can I ask why you aren't using the [man]ZIPArchive[/man] class? I didn't look at the class you're using but with the ZIPArchive class you can tell the archive what path the files should be added as. I'm on my way out the door to work but I'll post my back-up script which zips my site and hopefully that will help you out, it also backs up my DB and then FTPs the zip to another server but you can just ignore that stuff:

<?php

// Settings
$flags = array(
   'DB' => TRUE,
   'FTP' => TRUE,
);

// Directory
$folderBlacklist = array('cgi-bin');
$dir = '/home/user/public_html';

// Database
$DBHOST = '---';
$DBUSER = '---';
$DBPASS = '---';
$DBNAME = array('db1','db2');

// FTP
$FTPHOST = '----';
$FTPUSER = '----';
$FTPPASS = '----';

// Initialize zip file

addToZip($dir,$zip);

   return strcasecmp($a,$b);

Thanks Derokorian that did my work and resolved my problem
thanks onec agsin

[vivek151189]

But I want it to make downloadable and when downloaded want to delete the file from that place

Ok so you're at the bottom of the script that saved the file to the server's harddrive. You then could do:

$zip->close();
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream"); 
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=$zipname"); 
readfile($zipname);
unlink($zipname);
