Just a quick reminder for those trying to use shell_exec on a unix-type platform and can't seem to get it to work. PHP executes as the web user on the system (generally www for Apache), so you need to make sure that the web user has rights to whatever files or directories that you are trying to use in the shell_exec command. Other wise, it won't appear to be doing anything. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.shell-exec.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+37971 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+37971&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+37971&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
