Problem with gzuncompress

Hi,

I am trying to create a simple form that, when submitted, will
uncompress a string entered in a textarea using gzuncompress.

The entire HTML is below:

<?php

if (isset($_GET['action'])) {
if ($_GET['action'] == "decompress") {
$newtext = gzuncompress(stripslashes($_POST['textarea']));
}
}

?><html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form name="form1" method="post"
action="gzdecompress.php?action=decompress">
<textarea name="textarea" rows="8"><?php if (isset($newtext)) echo
$newtext; ?></textarea>
<br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
To simplify things for now I have just been trying to use a very basic
string:

xœËHÍÉÉ, - which is the result of gzcompress("hello")

Unfortuntely it stumbles on the line that reads:

$newtext = gzuncompress(stripslashes($_POST['textarea']));

Giving the following error:

Warning: gzuncompress(): data error in
/home/martyn69/public_html/test/gzuncompress.php on line 5
Why can it not decompress it?

Cheers

Burnsy
