note 39530 rejected from function.exec by betz

Note Submitter: codeslinger at emerald-forest dot net ---- If you are having trouble getting exec to work, try shell_exec instead... it's a mystery to me, but after many hours of banging my head against the wall... I simply could not get exec to work. So then I started poking around the docs etc. and decided to try shell_exec And it worked exactly like it's supposed to, on the very first try, and got the job done. I still don't know what the problem was with exec, it kept complaining about Access Permissions. Don't waste your time trying to solve it when a good alternate is available. -- Erik
