Is this a “Regular” process that actually requires a “Web Page” developed in PHP or is this something else.
Sounds more like you want to consider the use of FTP rather than PHP. However, assuming you DO want it in PHP, then what Acecool suggests should work. There are other methods as well (going the route of FTP), but I suspect that they are more complicated for what you are looking for.
As for “More Help” what have you got so far Give us a “Starting Point” to HELP you. After all this is PHPHELP.com
As of now, I don’t have any thing for the program to grab the files off the website, I do have a script that allows me to upload the files from my computer to the server after I have unzipped them.
the main thing that I am right now wanting to do is unzip the files using a script on the server then I will worry about geting the files automaticly
the host does not allow to have exe run so I have to use a tool to do this then, they are self exacting exe file and if I am right they can be exacted using a tool with out have to run it as a exe file
Thank for any help!
