Well that certainly runs them one after the other but it doesn't stop for
text input. It Just stops all together?
Filename: tester.php
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?php
set_time_limit(0);
ob_end_flush();
function input($prompt = null) {
if ($prompt != null) print $prompt;
$fp=fopen("/dev/stdin", "r");
$input=fgets($fp, 255);
fclose($fp);
return rtrim($input,chr(10));
}
print "start program 1\n";
$inp = input("filename ");
print "you typed ".$inp;
system("/usr/local/bin/php -f ./hello.php")
print "end program 1\n";
?>
Filename: hello.php
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?
set_time_limit(0);
ob_end_flush();
function input($prompt = null) {
if ($prompt != null) print $prompt;
$fp=fopen("/dev/stdin", "r");
$input=fgets($fp, 255);
fclose($fp);
return rtrim($input,chr(10));
}
$name = input("what's your name? ");
print "Hello $name!\n";
?>
Is my input function no good?
