There's nothing really 'bizarrement' about that. If only
you had read the docs, you would notice that system() is
described as follows: 'system -- Execute an external
program and display the output'.

See above.

Okay, what you need is backticks.

$entree = `ls` ;

Next time, read the docs. There is even a French version of
PHP Manual if you want convenience, although I would advise
against using that.
