note 52091 added to function.exec

I've been working on a little script to remotely start and stop game servers. I'm a complete noob at PHP, and need a little help. What i'm doing is getting info from multiple forms, and writing them to variables. I then combine the variables. (This works just fine) The problem I'm having is executing the variable string after it's combined. Any suggestions? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+52091 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52091&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52091&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52091&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52091&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52091&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+52091&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
