corbin Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Looks like you want http://php.net/exec, and you might want to look into tasklist.exe and taskkill.exe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueman378 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 if you want someone to code it for you ask in the freelance section. if you start coding it and get into trouble then ask here. although you learn more if you code it yourself.

corbin Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hrmmmm, under Windows, I'm not quite sure how to make exec not hang on the program. Under linux, it would simply be exec('someprogram &');, but as far as I know, there is not a Windows version of &. You could pipe the output to nul, but that wouldn't accomplish anything since the program would continue to run. Perhaps you could code a small C (or something) program that would spawn another program and exit.... Hrmmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
