in response to item #1 above: "If this is a simple DLL there is no way yet to run it from PHP." Answer: There are several different packages/add-ons to php that enable low level access to the windows api. One of the most popular of these packages is available at http://www.winbinder.org Winbinder does have the ability to load a dll and call it's functions. Winbinder also provides a large set of windows apis for creating windows and controls. This is useful for creating stand-alone desktop apps. It is a possible alternative to php-gtk. I've had mixed results with Winbinder, some things work very well, others are buggy; source code is available. It's worth a look, Evaluate carefully. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 168.103.158.33 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.com.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/72641 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72641 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/72641 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
