Executing ASP file from within PHP

QRator

Hey all.

I have a PHP file and an ASP file. I need to pass a few variables to the ASP file from within PHP.

Is this possible ? Here is the code I currently have...

$string = "registerprofile2.asp?LnbUsername=$_SESSION[username]&Isbn=";
if(isset($_SESSION['ISBN'])){
	foreach($_SESSION['ISBN'] as $key => $val){
	  $string .= $val."*";
	}
}
if(isset($_SESSION['licisbn'])){
	foreach($_SESSION['licisbn'] as $key => $val){
	  $string .= $key."*";
	}
}

I need to pass $string somehow to the ASP file without actually opening the ASP file itself.

Thanks a mill guys.

try a image link

echo "<img src=\"/folder1/folder2/page.asp?string=".$string." \" width=\"1\" height=\"1">"

you can hide the image link of screen

in php i use this to link images via another php script from html page so should work for asp but never tried
the php script is run but not shown in browser

i send back image link from php script with header("Location: link/image.jpg");

so you could also link back with a response ok image or a responce failed image if you wish

It's an ugly hack though. Instead of blatting a load of useless stuff at the browser (especially if the browser isn't supposed to display it (and what if the user has "load images" turned off?)), why not just have PHP call the ASP page itself?

$fp=fopen('http:/...'.$string);
//Since we don't actually care about the response...
fclose($fp);
