What exactly do you want to do? exec() & passthru() have different uses. Do you want to capture the output of the program? The exit value? Or what? When running external programs from PHP I find that it helps to specify the full path to the program. And you have made sure that you have the right permissions to execute said program? -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* Valerie: Aww, Tom, you're going maudlin on me ...
