Hi Jacob,
The script does indeed run, and I have since added the following :
$shell_return = shell_exec("./info.sh" . " 2>&1");
This pointed out to me that the error was in the script itself, and not
the php...
I have now sorted this out so it works as expected...
Thanks for your time in assisting..
Regards
Chris

We're mortal -- which is to say, we're ignorant, stupid, and sinful --
but those are only handicaps. Our pride is that nevertheless, now and
then, we do our best. A few times we succeed. What more dare we ask
for?
