Hello, Is it possible to have the contents of a shell_exec command go into an array? I have the following in my PHP script: <? $user="$PHP_AUTH_USER"; $command="command.sh"; $output=shell_exec("$command $user"); ?> Which calls a shell script "dirlist.sh", which returns results similar to the following: www www/docs www/test Is it possible to have each line put into an array? so that it would look like: $results = array("www", "www/docs", "www/test"); The shell script has dynamic output, so the number of lines, and line content wouldn't be the same on every execution. I would like to use a foreach loop to put the output from the script into a form, so I am just wondering if the command/array scenerio is possible. Thank you for any help, Ken Jansons E-Mail: kenj@colinux.net
