RE: [PHP] Exec()ing two strings, using same shell?

Exec("dir c:\somedir") or exec("cd somedir && dir") i.e. $dirContent = <one of the above>; print($dirContent); -----Original Message----- From: Leif K-Brooks [mailto:eurleif@buyer-brokerage.com] Sent: Monday, November 11, 2002 11:39 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Exec()ing two strings, using same shell? Sorry if I'm using the wrong words - not sure of the exact terminology. Anyway, is there a way to exec() two statments in the same shell? Example: //On win32 test machine exec("cd somedir"); print dir; //Outputs directory listing for c:\, not c:\somedir //But is there a way to get the directory listing for somedir instead? // I know I could do dir c:\someidr, but I'm doing more complex stuff than this example. -- The above message is encrypted with double rot13 encoding.
