Hi all,
I'm trying to make the script below run, it is supposed to
print a message and then wait for user input and then print
another message and wait again.
Instead, what it is doing is waiting for all the user input to
be entered before printing anything, and once entered printing
all of the messages and all of the input...
I associated php-cli.exe with all .php files and have tried running
it from command line with -a, -f, -q and < testscript.php ...
What am I doing wrong? (I remember I once had this type of thing
working back around PHP 4.04)
Thanks,
-Garth
