Mr. Khalid I cannot get the gz compression liberary working on my computer.

look I have windows 98 and i have installed php and apache on it.

now when I try using gzcompress() and gzuncomprss() fucntions, it gives me error that these functions are not defined, is just because the liberary is not called....

please anyone else to help me ?

I can only say that downlad the latest version of the PHP,sicne their documentation says it should work in windows environment without any extra tweaking.
