The format of a ZIP file is documented on the interwebs (http:// www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT). If one was so inclined, they could write a decoder to extract the xml and pass them to a DOM parser in their string form.

This part of the question was about PNG image data in a ZIP archive. PointedEars -- Prototype.js was written by people who don't know javascript for people who don't know javascript. People who don't know javascript are not the best source of advice on designing systems that use javascript. -- Richard Cornford, cljs, <f806at$ail$1$8300dec7(a)news.demon.co.uk>
