This module looks great, but I am afraid I don't fully understand how to make it work. I am assuming that when the Zip block is enabled for the page, the nodes displayed on the page will have their attachments available to be zipped and downloaded. Is that correct? Does this only include attachments attached using the core upload functionality or does it include imagefield and filefield attachments? If I create a view, and place the zip block on that page, should it gather up all the attachments of the nodes listed in the view and make a zip available?

thanks again!

correct

only using the core ( im trying to implement imagefield and filefield so maybe this will be available in the future )

you will be able to test in the next snapshot release the options i have added to use cck fields
you can add any cck file module in the pclzip admin options
to use these new features you also need to upgrade the main pclzip module to the last snapshot release.
the snapshot release should be availabele in 12 hours from now but you can get the files using cvs.
