Re: [PHP] system('bell'); ?
each of the terminals could then use a web based POS interface but there was only a single cash drawer. It would also be possible to have each 'till' running a copy of apache server, and communicating with a central database server. I can't for the life of me think of any way the client could open the drawer otherwise. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] system( bell ); ?
maybe a javascript button that somehow does the dos command or calls another program (exe) that will do the command to open the till...anywayz this is getting OT!

[PHP] system('bell'); ?
I simple wrote a small C program that basically sent a bell, 0x07
and it opened my cash drawer. In php I just did system('bell'); and
it worked fine.

Hi:
Interesting! The statement system('bell'); is new to me.
If I'm writing code on a hosted domain, and using that statement,
who's bell am I ringing?

Re: [PHP] system('bell'); ?
bell is his C program... :) Outputs an ascii 7 (bell) at the machine
where it runs. It basically outputs a character to stdout or stderr.
He probably has that machine next to his cash drawer...

Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee!

The server bell, not the client.
I used this method because the cash drawer was plugged into the server in a
shop front.
each of the terminals could then use a web based POS interface but there was
only a
single cash drawer.
