Unzip files in your account


Once uploaded , you can unzip the files following these steps :
1. Create file called unzip.php into the same folder as the archive.
2. Copy/paste the following content :
<? exec("unzip myfile.zip"); ?>
3. Replace myfile.zip with the name of your file
4. Open yourdomain.com/path_to/unzip.php in a browser
You will haev the .zip extracted into the same folder as the archive.

You can extract a zip file using cPanel's File Manager. Select the file and choose the option "Extract".

Thanks for tip, I will try it with Dreamhost, they do not have any web based file manager.

I'm assuming this is for hosts who do not have SSH access? Get yourself a host with SSH access!
