A script that allows you to use what?
And no, when you answer you do not have to post it 3 times, once will
suffice.

You seem to misunderstand the capabilities of javascript. Please go
read and learn more about it.

Javascript natively does not support this.

If you want to do this, and browser security settings allow, then you
will need to acquire a special ActiveX control (Internet Explorer) or
an XPCOM component (Firefox), and learn how to use these within
Javascript.

If you google for ActiveX and Zip, there should be a control out there
that you could download and install on your computer, and access
through script using "new ActiveXObject".

If on XP then you could adapt this code

no (additional) activex components required.

Thank you. Thats interesting. If I understand it correctly, it
effectively relies upon the functionality of any zip program you
already have installed.
