Unlike the BASH shell, where: echo "Hello whoami"; will print "Hello [name]" PHP will simply treat the backticks as literal. i.e. it prints: "Hello whoami" (To use backticks in PHP, do: echo "Hello ".whoami; ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55765&edit=1
