Note Submitter: spamfromnews@freax.org ---- This one works However, I don't know how secure it is function filterThroughCmd($input, $commandLine) { // replace all doublequotes $input = str_replace ("\"", "\\\"", $input); $pipe = popen("echo \"$input\"|$commandLine" , 'r'); if (!$pipe) { print "pipe failed."; return ""; } $output = ''; while(!feof($pipe)) { $output .= fread($pipe, 1024); } pclose($pipe); return $output; }
