Q: Reading Jar Files with PHP

[benjibones]

Hey there,

I have access to information that only comes in .Jar files. Is there a way to read/open/access Jar files using PHP? They will probably contain images as well as text.

Any help, as usual, is gratefully appreciated.

the fopen functions should do everything you need to do.

Hi benjibones, welcome to the forums,
You may have to use the PECL Java extension http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.java.php

If you have access, I always find it easiest/most flexible to use exec() and system() to just perform command-line actions.
