Can they work together? Not really. And yet, .. I recently did this to wrap a website's session based authentication/priveleges system around awstats. My PHP wrapper script, when it called the AWStats perl script, has all CGI environment variables set, so the output was ok even for the seperate pages. (all I had to do was in the perl script make sure it outputed the right file name in the output). The only catch was to capture the output of the script and remove the http headers that it sent out. So other then calling the perl script through exec'ing 'perl.exe c:\path\awstats.pl'... I don't know of any method to interface PHP to work with perl. Although, a thought as I was about to finnish this email... you could always (using perl for one page, php for another) use custom but compatible session handlers in both PHP and Perl and then you could use them together on your website. Still doesn't address more direct interactions though. hope that helps at least a bit..., Andrew. > hi list. does anyone have a clue on managing access to a script > written in perl from php? is there a way they can work together? > > thanxs in advance. > > mark > > Sent by Medscape Mail: Free Portable E-mail for Professionals on the Move > http://www.medscape.com > > -- > PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > > -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
