Silly Question

[SniperX]

Hi,

Im fairly new to php.

Can a php file receive (a) parameter(s) from an html file or cgi file?
if so what would the syntax be to do so?

Thanks in advance

Through the browser use GET and POST, GET goes in the url, POST in the http headers.
If from the command line you can use the $argv array with arguments or the open a file handle to 'php://stdin' and read from it.
