Help!
Running xampp (basic package) version 1.6.6a under windows XP Professional, installed to D:\xampp.
Attmpting to use zip_open() in php script and getting:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function zip_open() in D:\xampp\htdocs\tms_test\zip_test.php on line 3
The php script, from the 'w3schools' website, is:
<?php
$zip = zip_open("test.zip");
zip_read($zip);
echo "zip_open and zip_read appear to have worked."; // my version of 'some code'.
zip_close($zip);
?>
and as recommended, zlib123-dll.zip and pecl5.2-win32-200807092030.zip have been downloaded.
The contents of the above have been extracted to D:\xampp\php\ext.
In php.ini, extension_dir=D:\xampp\ext.
Question. What have I missed or done incorrectly?
Thanks,
Ivan

Check if extension=php_zip.dll is commented in php.ini.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

nav33n,
extension=php_zip.dll
Not commented in neither \xampp\bin\php.ini nor \xampp\php\php.ini,
but thanks for the question.

Problem caused by running script from within an IDE.
zip_open worked as expected when running directly in a Browser.
