note 28851 added to ref.exec

FOR WINDOWS USERS i had a look to start command. it's really usefull in fact. this is how i launch a specific Apache SSL server <?php $cmd = "start /D C:\OpenSA\Apache /B Apache.exe -D SSL"; exec($cmd,$output,$rv); ?> /D specify the path where application will be launched (equivalent to cd to path) /B launch application without a console window so to know the exact parameters of start, you could use <?php exec("start /? > start.txt"); ?> and you will get the help of start in a file named 'start.txt' in the same place you run the script for WIN 98 you may need to modify a little your command exec("COMMAND.COM /C START program args >NUL"); (taken from another post) -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+28851 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+28851 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+28851
