PHP5 - Apache2 - XPSP2
I have an XP batch file incorporating a For /F command which behaves
strangely if run from a shell_exec() or system().
Specifically, if the batch is run from a command prompt or from the
scheduler, it works as expected, but if I run the same batch from
shell_exec() the For /F misbehaves interpreting token fields.
Paraphrasing, "For /F "tokens=1-4" %%a in ('dir /-c c:\somedir') do if /I
%%d==somevalue dosomething" always returns the fourth space delimited field
for %d when run fom an XP cammand prompt or scheduler, but sometimes returns
the third space delimited field when run from shell_exec(). It always
returns the wrong field from the same dir output lines. The only coincidence
seems to be that it returns the wrong field when there are lots of
consecutive spaces preceeding the field.
Got me beat.
Anyone had similar issues? Please?
