Hi you can exec this command

tar xzvf logs.tar.gz access_log

where access_log is the file you want to extract.

Thanks, but I don't remote access to the shell. I was hoping I could
use the PHP compression functions to split the files, extract to a
variable, and scan the data.

I have been playing with gzfile() but what I'm doing seems a little
crude.

<?php
`tar xzvf logs.tar.gz access_log`;
?>

or

<?php
exec('tar xzvf logs.tar.gz access_log');
?>
.
