C would be the last resort. I suppose it would be easily done in Perl, but most of my colleagues prefer PHP. I love to make taking over the code easy, so PHP is more preferable to me. I took your advice and tried proc_open, but it seems blocking the parent process. (BTW, I didn't know this function, thanks!) I've already spent a lot of time solving this, os might beter to give up this problem and go for the other solution... Anyway, thanks for you help. I do appreciate it very much. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
