Thanks for the replies guys but the main reason I'm doing this is because most times I don't have access to the servers, or not enough preveleges to install myadmin or any other tools. I wish we had our own server but I'm trying for a solution where you can't upload any tools and cannot access system commands.
Curt's suggestion does not require command-line access - the backtick operator is a shorthand for exec() or passthru(), and is a language construct of PHP. So yeah, don't reinvent the wheel.
