Re: [PHP] Re: Problems with exec() on windows
You might have something there - never really thought about how windows forms the 8.3 names... not many resources online about it ... The actual path is c:\Program File\Gammu 1.23.91\bin\gammu.exe I'd used c:\Progra~1\Gammu~1\bin\gammu.exe Luke On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 8:57 PM, Shawn McKenzie nos...@mckenzies.netwrote: Kyohere Luke wrote: Hi, Tried all that - it'd work well until one of the arguments also had spaces and thus had or '' encapsulating it - this weirdness is the reason for this post.

Re: [PHP] ruby / rails within a php site
Would this work?
$contents = file_get_contents('
http://localhost/path_to_ruby_installation/rubyfile');
then print out the contents wherever you want to?
or something similar, basically, we get the html output of the ruby file
over http, since this will run your ruby/rails installation the way it
expects to be run...
Thoughts?
