calling a non-php program?

[svar]

Just wondering if it is possible for pHP to call an external program. For instance perl can do

system("myexecutable.e");

The idea is that the script may want to take a decisions based on more intricate
processing than what a database can do. I've never seen this though, so I'm not sure it's possible.

Hi

Have you checked [tt]system()[/tt] ? While there, make sure you also read the See also section too.
