Calling PHP function from Perl - as external program

Hi, What i need 2 do is call some php script from perl code. I've whole site written in Perl, and i'd like to use there adv. system written in PHP :-) First i thought, that it will be easy. I've this codes: ********************************* perl function get_banner(): system('/fullpath/ob', '100'); 100 means parametr, which specifies category // system runs its firts parametr, and passes the rest of list as parametrs. // i also tried do it trough /fullpath/oa.php 100 ********************************* php file /fullpath/ob #!/usr/bin/php -q <? echo "Params: $argv[0] - $argv[1]"; ?> of course, exec rights and standalone php are ok. ******************************** and only for test purposes i've also file oa #!/bin/bash echo $0 $1 ------ that is start situation in bash: [neo@miesto lib]# ./oa bagr ./oa bagr [neo@miesto lib]# ./ob bagr Params: ./ob - bagr so, it seem's everything works properly when I call in perl this function: system('/fullpath/oa', '100'); everything is ok but, this system('/fullpath/ob', '100'); produce this message: X-Powered-By: PHP/4.1.0 Content-type: text/html No input file specified. but, when i remove -q parametr from ob, it procude this message: X-Powered-By: PHP/4.1.0 Content-type: text/html #! /usr/bin/php Params: so, it is executed, but seem to be parsed by some other php in system (due to string output "#!/usr/bin/php"), but no parametrs are given. If anybody has any idea, please help me ;-). I have to note that i'm very beginner to the perl :-) Thx Vasek PS. safemode is disabled.
