You probably don't want to do that, at least not when you can't install a web server. Or was that ban Apache-specific? 1. Modify the PHP script to use $argv instead of $_GET/$_POST. 2. Install the CLI SAPI. 3. Write a small dialogue that prompts for whatever arguments using any of the languages available on Windows (Python would be ok) and start your PHP script from that, $argv populated from the form. Your colleague will see a usual buttons-sweet-buttons GUI application, you will be able to reuse the PHP script. -- How many Vietnam vets does it take to screw in a light bulb? You don't know, man.
