Hi,

I'm developing a c++ project in UNIX, I need to use PHP to build the front end of the project. In particular, the PHP web pages will be used to get inputs from user to be passed into the C++ program. Once the inputs are processed by the c++ program, they need to be passed back from the C++ program to the PHP page to be displayed.

I know this is doable, I really need to know how!!!

If anyone knows, pls reply ASAP???

THANX A BUNCH in advance!!!!

Check out the program execution functions on PHP.net.

I built a little tool that will ping a host, with a webform as a front for entering the url/ip address, and then a page that displays the results. It uses the exec() function to call ping.exe. Here's the code for it, for you to use as an example:


exec("ping $ip -n $number", $output);
$count = count($output);
$stats_start = $count - 4;
echo("<table align=\"center\">");
for($i = 0; $i <= $count; $i++){
	echo("<tr>\n\t<td>");
	if ($i < $stats_start && $i != 1) { echo ("<font class=\"1\">"); }
	elseif ($i == 1) { echo ("<font class=\"3\">"); }
	elseif ($i >= $stats_start) { echo ("</font><font class=\"2\">"); }
	if ($output[$i] == "") { $output[$i] = "&nbsp;"; }
	echo ("$output[$i]</font></td>\n</tr>");
}
echo ("<tr><td>&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td><font class=\"3\">Click <a href=\"index.php\">here </a>to do it again</font></td></tr>");
echo("</table>");

The vars $ip and $number are passed to the script through the form.

Hope this helps.
