Hi, I am wondering about putenv(). I would like to set an environment variable in php and then have that variable available to a Perl script. I am doing something like this. The php file: <? $myName = "carter"; putenv("A_NAME=$myName"); ?> Then in the Perl script: #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print $ENV{'A_NAME'}; exit; I think I may be misunderstanding how environment variables work. Any thoughts?
