note 64422 added to function.exec

after checking all exec() notes, but I could not find any idea about how to execute a client(local) program like run it at server? e.g: server A: RH Linux+Apache+PHP+Mysql client B: RH Linux+ Firefox at client B, open browser firefox, and firefox read configure of B then send this infomation to A, the PHP program at A will choose a appropriate procedure and display this procedure in the firefox, the end user can click the hyperlink of this procedure to call different local program at B(off coz, run it at client B). surely, this is a external execuation, How can i do it ? Create a firefox extension to achieve how to execute local application or use PHP socket ? ... ---- Server IP: 66.163.161.117 Probable Submitter: 218.17.40.199 (proxied: 1.0 TSISA) ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/64422 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64422 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/64422 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
