Note Submitter: Jamie ---- For windows users (using 5.0 rc3, not sure about older versions) if you're trying to pass in multi-word parameters, such as a path with a space in it, PHP acts differently compared to what you're used to for escaping the spaces. For example, a base call to your script would be like this: "c:\Program Files\php\php.exe" "c:\My Scripts\deleteall.php" *.bak c:\crap If you need to give it a directory with a space, do not enclose the parameter in quotes (that just confuses it), instead put a double quote in front of the space like so: "c:\Program Files\php\php.exe" "c:\My Scripts\deleteall.php" *.bak c:\My" Scripts\crap This second version will have argv[1] = "*.bak" and argv[2] = "c:\My Scripts\crap" This holds true for both the cgi and cli versions.
