Hi Keith, Your zip file is corrupt. First of all, replace "file:" with "binfile:".
It is possible that the revXML external can't cope with binary data. In that case, your zip file will stay corrupt and you'll have to retrieve the data manually. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 New: Download the Installer Maker Plugin 1.6 for LiveCode here http://qery.us/ce On 6 jun 2011, at 17:03, Keith Clarke wrote: > Hi folks, > I'm downloading a zip file via a web service call - the file is embedded as a > long string within the ...<result><zipFile> node of the XML file, accompanied > by a set of nodes that name the (xml text) files that I should find within > the zipped payload. > > So, I save this string out to to disk with... > > put revXMLNodeContents(tTree, tResultNode & "/zipFile/") into URL > "file:package.zip" > > This creates a zip file on disk OK, but when when I open the archive, instead > of a list of files, I get a .cpgz file - and attempting to open this causes > some weird recursion.
