ByteArray Compress

[buabco]

It seems that bytearray compress uses a different algorithm than the one used by PHP anyone knows of any PHP class to uncompress a compressed bytearray?

Thanks

It says Flex uses zlib... "Compresses the byte array using zlib compression.
The entire byte array is compressed."

PHP has zlib functions..i.e [url]http://www.phpdig.net/ref/rn69.html[/url]
I've never done this..but it should work..zlib is just a standard compression
algorithm..Pls let me know how it goes..I will use this soon.

Petter,

I'm afraid it didn't work, if I take a bytearray, and compress it with the
compress function, and the take the byte list and pass it to PHP (To do this I
base64encoded it so I can do copy paste from Actionscript to PHP code), then
used the base64_decode and use gzinflate on php to uncompress it, it doesn't
work. More so, both functions (PHP and Actionscript) use the same
specification, so I don't know what should I add to the compressed code to be
able to uncompress it when on php.

hope someone of Adobe sees this and is able to add more light on how the
compress function works, the compress function on PHP takes a compression level
function, but actionscript doesn't so my first question is what conpression
level is been use by the actionscript code.

Finally, it worked with PHP you have to use gzuncompress
