i´m trying to use a dos command with exec(), but whenever i load the page it opens a dos windows to execute the command, it closes it immediately and i never see anything on the page
any idea why is this happening?
exec() returns what the program prints to stdout. You'll can echo it, for instance. It pops up a DOS prompt because it has to run the command somehow.

i´ll try, but i thought exec printed the result in a variable (second parameter in exec())
thanks
