decompress gzip

site maps with gz compression

[MrGecko]

How can I decompress a gz file? I am making a bot and I'm needing to be able to read gz files that are site maps.

thanks,
Mr. Gecko

Not sure, but I think WinRar does it.

PHP provides Zlib Functions [php.net]

I've tried using gzuncompress but I always got this error
Warning: gzuncompress() [function.gzuncompress]: data error

Try this:

$file = gzinflate(substr(file_get_contents("sitemap.gz"),11));
