Hi,
Right now I enforced the file to read in through HTTP-Request and output it
to a local file.
Looks like this functioned perfectly after I used append functions after I
attempted to write to the file!
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this.

Are you making sure to credit the work and suggestions in your code as
required by your class documentation standards?

I am working for my client who wants to get some tasks done. Had this been for
an assignment for a class, I would probably have to contact my instructor about
it.
Thanks for pointing it out.

Hopefully this will be clear.
I've got a unix command-line app which I will be exec'ing (or some
other similar command) from a php script.
The special property of this unix app is that while it executes and
terminates quickly, only a single instance can be running at any one
time.
However, the php script can be called simultaneously and it is
possible that an invalid attempt to run two or more instances of the
unix app at the same time could be made.
Now, one possible solution to this problem is that the php script adds
it's request to run the unix app to a queue and their is some other
code which pulls a request off the queue, performs the operation and
returns the data back to the php script which made the request.
Are there other solutions that I have not considered?

Can you just add the commands to a database, and have the commands
read from there and run via cron job every n minutes? That would
ensure that the *NIX file will only be run with a single instance, but
run over and over again.

A lock file. Your script will lock it when it's running, unlock it when
it's done. If your script finds the file already locked, it quits.
In practical terms, your script will check for the existence of the
file. If found, it exits. If not found, it creates it. And removes it
when it's finished.
Yes, the check and the creation of the lock file should preferably be
atomic, but when you're in a script language, you can't have it all.

I still do not believe that he had to do 5 years in the IDF by Israeli
law. Unless he signed up as an officer, which he could have chosen not
to do.

Thanks. _That_ is an army that I very much respect.

Looking through the PHP 5 docs regarding the information returned by
localconv(), I am not sure what the 'grouping' and 'mon_grouping' elements
refer to.
Can someone explain to me why in the example shown ('[EMAIL PROTECTED]'), the
grouping array is empty and the mon_grouping array has two elements of '3'
each.
Thanks, Ian.
