Hi
Haven't tried this, nor heard of anyone who has, but the shell_exec()
function in PHP allows you to execute shellcommands on a *nix server.
You may do similar things running on a win-server, however, it has to
go through the cmd.exe-file. e.g. <?
shell_exec("C:\\path\\to\\cmd.exe /c C:\\batchfile.cmd");
?>
I'm really not sure about this, but I remembered reading about this,
and seeing that you didn't get a positive answer.
Please correct me if I'm wrong
Morten
