Generate Zip File from Visualforce Page

I need to create a button on Case. Once the button is clicked, all the files attached with the case need to be put in a zip file and this zip file will be downloaded to user's desktop. Any idea of how to achieve this will be greatly appreciated.

You can't do this purely in Visualforce code. The correct method would be to use an embedded application, such as a Java Applet, to compress the files using (for example) java.util.zip, and then present the completed file to the user for saving.

Hi,

I am also having same requirement(i.e ., download all the case attachment as zip file with single button click like "Download All Attachment"). So as per your suggestion we can achieve this with the help of java servlet., can you please bring extra description about that and can you give example code also?
