Using Drupal 7. I'm a newb, so go easy on me : (
I am building a site, strictly for learning purposes, that is basically an e-learning course portal.
So I have a content type named 'Course'. The course author role would then create a new Course and in the Course type are numerous fields such as title, description, etc. But also a File upload field that accepts .zip files (this is because most e-learning authoring tools publish to zip format, with the zip containing an index.html and a bunch of .swf files/other .html files and some .js files).
What I'd like to be able to do is:
1. Once the user uploads the zip file, it automatically gets unzipped into a new subdirectory.
2. A link to the 'index.html' file that is in that subdirectory (as it was in the previous .zip package) is then made available and listed in that Course's node page.
I looked for a module that would do this but couldn't find any that fit the bill, and most were not Drupal 7 compatible.

use hook_node_presave
You will to do some amount of custom code go get this working.
use hook_node_presave and use PHP to unzip the file.
After the file has been unzipped and created, you need to identify if index.html exists.
If it does, go ahead and append a link of the same to the $node->body.

Did you get this going?
Hello!
I'm in the same boat as you, and while the responders comment where no doubt accurate, they were a bit above my skill.
Did you get anywhere with this? If you did, I would love to see how you did it, as must do something exactly like that for a site I've been required to work on.
Cheers
