<?php
exec("/full/path/to/script.pl", $output, $error);
while (list(,$line) = each($output)){
echo $line, "<BR>\n";
}
if ($error){
echo "OS Error: $error. Usually path/permissions.<BR>\n";
}
?>
Perl could call PHP the same way it calls anything (which I can say blithely
since I have no clue how that is), but you'll need to install PHP as a
stand-alone binary (aka CGI) or make Perl call wget or lynx to surf to a PHP
page.
[It's kinda like if you had mod_perl installed but *not* Perl itself... PHP
compiled as "CGI" is akin to Perl itself. Except better, of course. :-)]
