In the above, is $php the string you showed earlier or does it contain
something else?

I'm not sure what the problem is, if all you say is true. When I type in
the equivalent, I get back "Hello World":
$ tclsh
% set php {<? print_r("Hello World"); ?>}
<? print_r("Hello World"); ?>
% exec php << $php
Hello World
So... the only conclusion I can draw is that your php command doesn't
work the same way as mine. That, or you're putting something different
in $php. Unfortunately I am not able to exactly duplicate your
environment since you're executing tcl from with a web page served by
some tcl-enabled web server, and I don't have that web server (what web
server is that, BTW?)
The only thing I can suggest at this point is that the problem is no
longer a Tcl problem but rather a php or web server problem.
Is it possible that your php script prints to stderr instead of / in
addition to stdout? If exec detects output on stderr it will throw an
error unless stderr is redirected (this is all documented on the exec
man page)

Are you aware that single quotes are not a valid quoting mechanism for
Tcl? Any time you try to use single quotes to quote something in Tcl
you're bound to be disappointed.
