PHP Shell-like return codes

Hi you all, I'm using PHP in its CGI mode in order to create scripts like Shell or PERL scripts, ie scripts like: ------------------------ #!/usr/local/bin/php -q <? print("Hello World"); ?> ------------------------ The problem I have is that it seems there's no way to return a code (like in a shell script using exit(-1)), which could then be tested by a REGULAR Shell script with an IF statement. I would like to be able to write a script like: ------------------------ #!/bin/sh if myscript.phx ; then echo TRUE else echo FLASE fi ------------------------ In 'myscript.phx', I've tried to use both RETURN() and EXIT() PHP commands, without any success :-((( Any clue how this problem could be solved ? Many thanks in advance... - P. Zwahlen - -- Patrick Zwahlen patrick.zwahlen@hq.worldonline.ch IT Manager Phone: +41 (0)21-641-5950 World Online Switzerland Mobile: +41 (0)78-671-1554 Av.
