Jacque,

A couple of quick thoughts:

1) PHP has a few commands - exec(), system() and passthru() which do similar things in terms of calling an external program. Documentation on php.net is quite good - just browse there and type in the command name in the search box.

2) If the Rev process is long-running (aka "background process"), you can communicate via sockets. Pierre has previously posted some scripts for this which work well.

Hope that gives you a jump start!

I have a Revolution CGI that someone wants to use on their server, which is managed by some php scripts. I know nothing about php. Is it possible for php to call the Rev cgi and get the response back? Both processes will be running on the same server. Any pointers or reference URLs on how to do that?
