Read Guitar Pro files with php

Question

I want to parse guitar pro files using php. I came across this question which directed me to a description of the gp4 format.

As I understand, the file is highly readable :), I just need to know the structure of it. What is the way to do this using php (or maybe javascript)?

Is this php function a way to "blindly" parse through the file?
