Hi gamin, > Running Red Hat 7.2, PHP 4.0.6. Is there any way of knowing if a certain > PHP script was run from the command line, shell script or through the > webserver (Apache). May be i could check the user calling the script and > find out but how would i do that ? There is a difference in the way argc and argv are managed - see manual. Also (do two phpinfo() runs to check - one under Apache and one from the command line) depending upon the web server (Apache in our cases) there are whole sections of the 'standard output' that do not have relevance from the command line (because there is no web server!), eg SERVER_SOFTWARE and SERVER_SIGNATURE. Should you figure out something better than this, please let me know too! Regards, =dn
