Answer 1

You can do this.

ls | zip test.zip -@

this is done from the notion that i have 3 files in the dir.

-rw-rw-r-- 1 xxx domain users   6 Jan  7 11:41 test1.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xxx domain users   6 Jan  7 11:41 test2.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xxx domain users   6 Jan  7 11:41 test3.txt

and the file itself, the result is then

Archive:  test.zip
  Length     Date   Time    Name
 --------    ----   ----    ----
        6  01-07-10 11:41   test1.txt
        6  01-07-10 11:41   test2.txt
        6  01-07-10 11:41   test3.txt
 --------                   -------
       18                   3 files

From the Linux Zip Man page

If the file list is specified as -@, zip takes the list of input files from standard input.
